SCIME, Calogero "Charlie" 1929 - 2016.


Peacefully at Arbour Creek on Monday, January 4, 2016 in his 87th year. Beloved husband of the late Maria Grazia of 43 years, reunited again in Heaven. Cherished father and father-in-law of Charlie (Jennifer) & Rosalia Adele (Nestor Font). Proud Nonno to Savannah. Predeceased by his parents Rosalia & Calogero, as well as his father-in-law Giuseppe and mothers-in-law Adele and Giuseppina Alfano.


Predeceased by dear sister and dear brother-in-law Maria and Salvatore Ippolito of Hamilton. Dear brother and brother-in-law to Anna and the late Calogero Bellomo of Italy, Giuseppe and Cettina Scime of Germany, the late Luigina and Giuseppe Pitruzzella of Italy along with the late Salvatore Scime also of Italy.


Dear brother-in-law to the late Giuseppe Alfano and his surviving spouse Angela Alfano. Dear brother-in-law to Adela and Salvatore Salvo, Anthony and Carmela Alfano, and Angela and Domenic Giovinazzo. Predeceased by dear brother-in-law and sister-in-law Charlie and Pauline Alfano of Hamilton and Salvatore Alfano of Italy. Dear brother-in-law of the late Alfonso and his surviving spouse Filomena Alfano.


Thank you to the staff at Arbour Creek for their care and support over the past few years.


His warm demeanour, love of gardening, wine, food and all things Italian will be sadly missed by many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends from Hamilton, Italy, Germany and Belgium. We think the garden in heaven will be that much better this year with your help.


Dad, we will always remember you for teaching us so many things including the importance of family. For saying things such as, “when everyone else is happy, I am happy too”. We will remember the family card games at Christmas and other occasions, how good of a card player you were and how much fun we had together.
