Francesco Luigi Verardi
Suddenly but peacefully, Frank Verardi passed away at the age of 67 years at his home in Tottenham on Monday, July 13, 2026. Frank remains the Beloved Husband of Julie Lynn Verardi (née Nadrofsky) and will be remembered by his children: Christopher Verardi and Jennifer Verardi; and stepchildren: Jay Totten, Jeff Totten, Brandon Landry (Kirstin), Ashley Landry (Kevin); his grandchildren: Spencer, Kyle, Evan, Kaden, Andrew, Jace, Shaylin, Zak, Aliviah, Aryka, Maddy-Lynn and Bryson; his great-granddaughter, Ashlyn; his brother Louie Verardi (Deanna) and his sister, Roseanne Cool; his parents-in-law, Arline Fawcett and the late Robert Nadrofsky; his sisters- and brothers-in-law: Penny Ronyson (Greg), Rhonda Nelson (Earl), Michele Reichenbach (Hans), Dean Fawcett (Tina), Bill Nadrofsky (Yvonne), Jamie Nadrofsky (Karen) and Shane McClure; his nieces and nephews: Cassandra McCabe (Morgan), Hillary Molinaro (Robert), Thomas Cool, Emily Cool, Adam Cool and Elizabeth Cool; his godchildren: Stephanie, Cassandra, Thomas and Elizabeth; as well as innumerable other relatives and friends. Frank remains in the hearts of his very large and extended family as a loved and cherished brother, uncle, Nono, nephew, cousin and honoured friend.
Frank was born in Timmins, ON where he remained for many happy years and worked as an instrumentation technician for Kidd Creek Mine.
In 1992, he graduated as an Electronics Engineering Technologist and in 1996, graduated from Lakehead University as an Electrical Engineer. In 2012, Frank celebrated twenty-five years as a member of The Ontario Association of Certified Engineering Technicians and Technologists and continued to work as a Professional Engineer until his death.
In Tottenham, he made a beautiful home with his beloved wife, Julie, and together they chased countless adventures from fly-fishing in Eastern Canada to sunset road-trips; never with a map, often without a plan and always finding something beautiful on the way. Retired as the President of Verardi Automation Technology Inc., his days were filled with his mischievous enthusiasm, pulling one more laugh from his family and friends, perfecting the set-up for his HAM radio, stubbornly cheering on the Leafs and fly-fishing. He belonged to the Upper Credit Trout Club and was a member for many years with the Glenn Haffy Fly Fishing Club.
Everything Frank did, he stepped into with his full heart and his love for his family and his friends was without end. His stories and jokes, his spontaneity and humour, and his gentle heart will never be forgotten. He has been reunited with his parents, Giovanni Verardi and Mary Stella Verardi (née Clausi), and is, without a doubt, casting a fly in heaven.
To honour Frank, his family would be grateful for memorial donations made to the Sunnybrook Health Science Center. Please choose ‘other’ in the designation menu and indicate ‘Cochlear Implant Program – Frank Verardi’ to ensure memorial donations are directed appropriately.
