Passed away suddenly but peacefully at West Gippsland Hospital,
Warragul after a brave battle with Parkinson’s and Cancer.
Dearly loved husband of Rosie, cherished father of Adrian and
Chiara and adored Nonno of Elias and Ashton.
Loved son of Sebastiana and Sebastiano (dec.) Romano, brother and brother-in-law to Sam and Mary, Joe, Joy and Angelo Carpinteri, Victor and Mary, Quinto and Levina, Nella and Vince Massaro, Nello Romano, Bernie and Anna Smaniotto.
Treasured uncle to his many nieces and nephews.
Mano was a devoted husband, father and Nonno, and our family’s steady heart. He was full of life and energy, and always willing to do anything for a friend. He loved deeply, gave generously, and showed us every day what it meant to put family first. Our lives are forever changed because of him, and we are forever grateful for the time we were given.
He has left an unforgettable mark on everyone who knew him
and his legacy will live on in our hearts.
