He lived his life with virtue and his integrity, humility and honour has inspired everyone who knew him. Our beloved Anselmo passed away peacefully in his sleep surrounded by his loving family. He was a man of another era, the type of human being we can emulate. He was a true inspiration and the greatest teacher we've known. As he was a hero for his country in the Second World War, he will forever be our hero. There will never be anyone who will quite compare, and each member of Anselmo's family were the loves of his life. This beloved man, husband to Catherine, father to Joe (Maria), Lino, Lucy (Terry) DeFidelibus, Steve (Melissa) Patruno and Mary (Jay) Lockwood. Grandfather to Rina (Rick) Palumbo, Andy (Cathy) Patruno, Lee, Natalie, Tara and Michael and great-grandfather to Joey, Catrina, Helena and Lianna, will be missed immensely. Anselmo's memory and warm smile will carry on in our hearts forever.
