Dino was my barber for the three years that I lived in Kanata. He always spoke very highly of his daughter. He will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with his friends and family.

I was very saddened with the news of Dino's passing. I had dropped into the Kanata barbershop for a haircut and anticipating a nice chat with him when I learned of Dino's passing.
Dino was always ready to lend a hand or offer to lend you something. While discussing the challenges I had grooming my long hair puppy, Dino gave me a pair of thinning scissors that were not working out for him. He even sharpened them for me. An amazingly nice gift. You will be well remembered Dino.

Dear Vigile family,
I just learned today of this terribly sad news. My most sincere condolences to his daughter and his entire family. Dino was a wonderful person - a kind and gentle man who has been my barber for 20 years. He also always cut my son's hair for the past 13 years. My son always smiled with Dino and came back with a lollipop for his sister even when I told Dino to not give it to him.. But, Dino was more than our barber, he provided counsel to everyone he met and brought a smile to his clients and friends. I only wish we had been there for him more. The Sheth family is missing him. We raise a toast tonight for Dino. He is dearly missed. May he rest in peace and we remember a beautiful person in his passing.
Sadly,
Sameer, Sheila, Maya and Tejas

So sorry to learn of Dino's passing. I saw him many times at the barber shop and used to chat with him at the gym at the Brookstreet hotel a few years back. No question that he was a hard-working, honest, sincere man. He used to charge me $3 for a shave and I always remember wishing he'd charge more because he deserved more. Rest in Peace, Dino.
