Obituary of Giancarlo Domenico Corsi
Corsi, Giancarlo (John)
May 3rd, 1947 – June 29th, 2018
John did not want to leave. There was still so much to do with his family and friends, especially his little flower, granddaughter Azalea.
Surrounded by his family, John passed away on June 29th, 2018 after a hard-fought battle with cancer. He is pre-deceased by his parents Michele and Amelia. John leaves behind his wife Judy (nee Clemens), daughter Dana (Mark), son Mike (Emily), granddaughter Azalea, step-grandson Braeden, and furry companion Jojo. He is also survived by his sisters Adriana Rollins (Phil) and Mary Corsi, his Aunt Geraldine Corsi and numerous cousins.
A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Katherine Lockington, John’s physician and family friend, who oversaw his journey from day one. Thank you also to a wonderful network of friends and colleagues who supported John during his illness. John received excellent, compassionate care at the Cancer Centre of Southeastern Ontario, from Vicki Johnson of the SE LHIN and her palliative team, and during his stay in the Palliative Care Unit at Providence Care. Thank you.
There will be a visitation for John on Wednesday July 4th from 4-7pm at the James Reid Funeral Home. The funeral mass will be on Thursday July 5, 2018 at 11am at Our Lady of Lourdes Parish on Days Road in Kingston. Everyone is welcome to follow in procession to Cataraqui Cemetery following the funeral mass for the burial and then to the James Reid Reception Centre (1900 John Counter Blvd.) for a final salute to John’s life.
In lieu of flowers, the family has asked for donations be made to either the UHKF (Cancer Center of Southeastern Ontario) or the Kingston Humane Society.
