GIOVANNI “JOHN” BRACCIALARGHE

In loving memory of Giovanni “John” Braccialarghe 95 years who passed away on Monday, August 3rd, 2020 at Health Sciences North. He is survived by his loving wife of 71 years, Carmela “Nella” (nee DiTommaso). He will be dearly missed by his children Julie Lye (Alan), Terri Korzeniecki (Ted) and Rosanna. Adored by his grandchildren Christine Lye (Chris Pakkala), Janet Lye, Allison Lye (Jim Park), Paul Korzeniecki (Debbie), and Tracy Croome (Brad), and his 9 beautiful great grandchildren, all of whom lovingly called him “Papa John”. Giovanni was born in Italy and came to Canada in 1958. He was extremely proud of his Italian heritage. He enjoyed gardening, making his own wine, prosciutto, and tomato sauce.
