Published by Legacy Remembers on May 20, 2015.
We are saddened to announce the passing of Rocco Massimo Quintieri on May 18, 2015 at Southlake Regional Hospital with his family at his side. Rocco was born on August 7, 1966 in Toronto. He is deeply missed by his beloved wife Lina (Cretaro) and 17th month old daughter Ava Olivia. He is the cherished son of Victor and Nancy Quintieri, dear brother of Gisella (John), Juile (Ron), Frank, Angie (Tony), and loving uncle to Nicole, Julia, Alex and Leanna. Lina's family also shares in this grief with her parents Anna and Vito, brother Luciano (Rosanna), Sisters Sandra and Laura (Anthony) and nieces and nephews Amanda, Austin, Luca, Daniela, Matteo, Victoria, and Alyssa. He will be sadly missed by his many friends and relatives.

Rocco my dear brother, there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of you or mention you name. The heartache and tears of losing you still remain and always will.
I know you got your Angel wings the day your soul left this earth and I have felt your presence many times in the signs that you have given me. I miss your laughter the love of life that you had and most of all that smile that would light up a room when you walked in.
You were loved by many and terribly missed by all. I have great comfort in knowing that you are no longer suffering in pain and that helps me get through the day.
Love you, miss you and you will never be forgotten.

My sincerest condolences to the entire family. Rocco was my coworker and he was the person that drove me from work to the hospital the day I had my heart attack at work. He stayed with me at the hospital and made sure I was ok before returning to work. That's just the kind of man Rocco was. He will be very missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you all during this very difficult time.

In Loving Memory of my Brother Rocco Quintieri ❤.

Dear Rocco

You received your Angel Wings too soon but have left us with precious memories that will never be forgotten. I will never forget that smile and the love that you had for Life. The courage and strength that you had during your long and difficult journey was truly an inspiration to all. You made all of us really understand how precious life is and how not to take it for granted.
It truly broke our hearts to lose you so soon but you did not go alone because part of us went with you the day that God called you home.
Words can not express our Love for you. RIP Little Brother ❤

My deepest Condolences to the Quintieri Family. May God grant you peace through this difficult time.
"
O merciful Father,
who hast taught us in thy holy Word that thou dost not willingly afflict or grieve the children of men:
Look with pity upon the sorrows of thy servant for whom our prayers are offered. (Rocco Quintieri)
Remember him, O Lord, in mercy,
nourish his soul with patience,
comfort him with a sense of thy goodness,
lift up thy countenance upon him,
and give him peace;
through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.

In memory of my brother in law Rocco,

God looked around his Garden and found an empty place.
He then looked down upon his earth and saw your face.
He put his arms around you and lifted you to rest.
His Garden must be beautiful, he always takes the best.
He knew that you were suffering, he knew you were in pain.
And knew that you would never get well on earth again.
He saw your path was difficult, he closed your tired eyes,
He whispered to you "Its Time" and gave you wings to fly.
When we saw you sleeping so calm and free of pain,
We would not wish you back to earth to suffer once again.
You've left us your precious memories, your love will be our guide,
You live on through Ava and you will always be by her side.
It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone.
For part of us went with you on the day God called you home...
