It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Ignac (Ed) Sardi on Tuesday, February 7, 2017, at his home, surrounded by his children, after a short battle with cancer. Born in Hlapicina, Croatia on July 15, 1933, he was a loving husband of the late Pamela Rose (nee Horsley), proud father of Martin (Tamara), Elizabeth (Alex) and Diane (Brooke) and beloved grandad of Spencer, Sophia, Samantha, Madeleine, Cooper, Finleigh and Emmett. His memory will be cherished by his surviving sisters Teresa, Ana, and Juliana, and extended family in Europe and the U.S. Ignac was born in Medjimurje, one of 18 children, his parents did not have much. He began work at an early age in the coal mines, completing two years in the army, before fleeing communist Yugoslavia to arrive in Canada on Dominion Day in 1957 with less than $20 in his pocket. He worked hard as an orderly in Toronto Tuberculosis Hospital and later went on to obtain certification as a millwright from which he retired in 1997.

The family will receive their friends at Egan Funeral Home, 203 Queen Street S. (Hwy. 50), Bolton (905-857-2213) Monday from 4 to 8 o’clock.

Memorial Mass will be held in Holy Family Roman Catholic Church, 60 Allan Drive, Bolton on Tuesday morning, February 14 at 10 o’clock.

Condolences for the family of “Ignac (Ed) Sardi”

Condolence from Jodi McArthur (S’more) and Lindsey on February 8th, 2017 7:33 pm

Martin, Tamara, Samantha and family

I am so very sorry to hear about the passing of your father and grandfather. I am so glad to have met him through Samantha and Guiding. What a wonderful man he was. It was very evident Samantha how much your grandfather loved you and loved spending his time with you. I know how much you are going to miss him. I am sending you a big heartfelt hug. I would often see Ed walking from home to Tim Hortons, along the river’s edge in downtown Bolton. If I ever saw him sitting in Tim Hortons we would always have a little chat. Samantha, at this time when you’re feeling sad think of all the wonderful great memories that you’ve had with your grandfather. My thoughts are with you and your family.

Condolence from Sally Gillibrand on February 10th, 2017 3:34 am

To our Canadian cousins,
How sad the news of Uncle Eddy’s passing is. We feel privileged to have known him, admired him and call him uncle. He made our holidays in Canada, all those years ago, very special. You gave him the best love and care you could, not just over the last couple of months, but ever since the passing of Auntie Pam. Even though we can’t be with you on Tuesday morning you will be in our thoughts, as you often are, and will continue to be.
Kind thoughts and fond memories …….
Sally and Mike

Your dad was such a special loving family man. He was such a wonderful father and grandfather. We missed Pam when she passed and now we have to carry on without our dear friend and neighbour Ed. It’s just not fair! Life goes on though and I will feel his presence whenever I go walking in the neighbourhood. Rest in peace dear friend Ed. We will miss you terribly but know your spirit is with us. God bless you!
