Obituary of Antonio L. Trichilo

It is with very heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Antonio Leonardo Trichilo, a beloved husband, father, brother, and friend. Mr. Trichilo or “Tony”, to those who knew him best, was born on June 15th 1940, in Siderno Calabria, Italy and passed away peacefully with his family by his side, on September 20, 2020, at Trillium Hospital, after becoming ill.​Tony was the loving son of the late Francesco and Immaculata, a brother to Michele (Rosalba), Vincent (Vittoria), and Maria (Frank), son-in-law to Lily (Renzi) and the late Anthony Jacobelli, brother-in-law to Maria (Paul), John (Mary) He was a devoted husband to the late Anita (Jacobelli) and leaves behind a loving daughter Rosemarie, three wonderful sons, Francesco (Marcela), Anthony (Elvira), and Ricardo (Nicole), three caring grandchildren, Adriana, Michaelanthony, and Carter, many adoring nieces and nephews, and countless cherished friends.​Tony was an incredibly hard-working man who devoted his life to supporting and caring for his family. He enjoyed many things including cutting and styling his client's hair for many years, attending to his garden, taking day trips to the casino and playing poker with a glass of homemade wine. However, what Tony loved most, was spending time with his beautiful family and friends. Despite the sudden passing of Tony, we find solace in knowing that he has been freed of that which ailed him.

May he now rest peacefully amongst the angels with his beloved parents and wife at his side.​For those wishing to pay their respects, the viewing will be held at Scott's Funeral Home, 420 Dundas St. East, Mississauga, on Saturday, September 26th and Sunday, September 27th, 2020.
