Fedele “Fred” Rossi

Fedele “Fred” Rossi

September 5, 1958 - January 24, 2023

It is with heavy hearts and great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of our beloved Fedele “Fred” Rossi in Montreal on January 24th, 2023. Fred was a true family man, devoted husband to Luciana Pennesi, doting and proud father to Marco and Nila. Beloved son of Domenica, and the late Nicola Rossi, dear brother to Francesca (Paolo Wong), Maria (Douglas Worrilow), Uncle to Andrea, Michela, the late Carla, Riva, Adriana & Giuliano, loved son-in-law to Adua and the late Igino Pennesi, Brother-in-law to Luana (Claudio Cignola) and Tania. He will also be missed by countless friends near and far.

Fred will be affectionately remembered not only for his sharp intellect and his quick wit, very mischievous ways and his ever so charming smile. He leaves an indelible footprint in our hearts as an attentive husband, father, son, brother & loyal friend. His love of life was always evident but kicked into full gear especially at his famous toga parties, and as a sports enthusiast for his favorite teams: Go Habs Go! Go Giants! Forever in my heart Bear.

In lieu flowers, a donation to the heart and stroke foundation or the cardiology institute will be greatly appreciated. There will be no service following the viewing. Cremation will take place at a later date.
