It is with great sadness and shock that we announce the sudden passing of Tony Di Gennaro, my (Helen) beloved husband and father to Melissa, on August 23rd, 2017. He leaves to grieve his brother-in-law, Stan (Madeleine), his sisters-in-law Mary and Jo-Ann (Tony), as well as his aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, many cousins, numerous friends and colleagues.

He led an accomplished life, working as the Director of Marketing for Ultramar for 33 years. He was a Councillor for the City of Kirkland for 8 years, while also volunteering his time and expertise serving on the Board of Directors of the Lakeshore General Hospital Foundation. He was also involved with the Terry Fox Run, the Salvation Army Food Drive, and many other organizations.

His passion for Kyokushin Karate led him to the title of Sempai Tony, first degree black belt (Shodan). He will be greatly missed by all and never forgotten.

Visitation will take place at the Belvedere Funeral Complex, 22025 Route Transcanada, Senneville, QC on Monday, August 28 from 7-9 p.m., and Tuesday, August 29, from 2-5 p.m. and 7-9 p.m. A celebration of Tony’s life will take place in the chapel of the funeral complex on Wednesday, August 30 at 11 a.m. Donations can be made to the Lakeshore General Hospital Foundation.
