Peacefully at the Sault Area Hospital on Wednesday Dec. 22, 2021, at the age of 85. Beloved husband and best friend of the late Carmela for over 55 years. He will be greatly missed by his children Ernesto Console (Melinda), Rosetta Linklater and Marisa Hicks. Giovanni’s greatest joy were his grandchildren Daniel Linklater (Jasmine Kennedy), Johnny Console and Kayla and Tianna Hicks.
Giovanni was the son of the late Ernesto and Rosina Consoli, Brother of the late Tito Consoli (late Rosanna), Atilio Consoli (Lidia), Maria Consoli (Nicola Spina) and Rosina Spina (late Giuseppe). Brother-in-law of the late Michele Mannarino (late Margherita), late Teresa Napolitano (late Giuseppe), late Nicola Mannarino (Rita), late Vittorio Mannarino (Emma), late Vincenzo Mannarino (Luisa), late Giulia Cicchello (Francesco), the late Pietro Mannarino (Rosaria) and Elvira Pasqua (late Gennaro).
He will be sadly missed by his many nieces, nephews and friends.
Giovanni was born in Belsito, Calabria, Cosenza Italy. He traveled to Canada in 1963, to start his new life with his future wife Carmela.
Giovanni loved to work in his garden and loved to sit outside enjoying the sunshine. He can now sit out with our mother and watch over us in heaven.
Rest in peace, Nano!
