Obituary for Vincent Stanley Pugliese

In Loving Memory of Vincent “Vince” S. Pugliese
90 years
Peacefully, Monday, March 25th, 2019 at Maison McCulloch Hospice, Sudbury,
with loving family at his side.

Beloved husband of 61 years to Joy (Demeria) Pugliese. Loving father of Lynda, Maryann (husband Dave), Vince Jr. (wife Lynn), Stanley (wife Debbie), Larry (wife Carrie), Teddy (wife Carol), Sandra (husband Paul), and Tommy (wife Jennifer). Cherished Papa of Matthieu, Angela, Krista, Andrew, Sean, Sarah, Alex, Megan, Mariah, Nathan, Ethan, Teddy Jr., Jessica, Samantha, Stephanie, Simon, Jacob, Owen, and great-grandchildren Everly, Cora, Ella, and Mason. Dear son of Stanley and Jenny (Giocondo) Pugliese both predeceased. Dear brother of Marg Pugliese, Jean Belac (husband Victor), Mildred Pugliese, and Tommy Pugliese both predeceased. Sadly missed by loving nieces and nephews.

Many thanks to Dr. Sbrocchi, Dr. D’Aloisio, Dr. Pianezza, Dr. Masters, Dr. Walton, and all the other health care professionals who cared for Vince over the years, with special thanks to CCAC Home Nursing and all the staff and volunteers at Maison McCulloch Hospice.

Vince Pugliese Sr. was born in Coniston, Ontario in 1928. Our husband, dad, papa and great-papa was many things, but first and foremost he was a family man. He took great pride in the life that he and his wife Joy built together. He is lovingly remembered by the love of his life, Joy; his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren, who will be sure to carry and share his many stories with them always.

Vince was a storyteller. If you knew him, he likely had a story about you and certainly one for you. Vince remembered everyone he ever met it seemed, and he would happily share his experiences and opinions with you; often with a wonderful laugh and unexpected punch line.

Vince was a teacher. He could build or fix anything; and he always did. He was always interested in knowing how things worked and how he might make them work better. An electrician, a plumber, a carpenter, a butcher, a mechanic; the list is long if you wanted to describe his interests.

As long as that list is, he was our husband, our dad, our papa and great-papa, and he will be missed - but with a smile.

In lieu of flowers, donations to the Maison McCulloch Hospice would be appreciated.
