Davide Genio was born January 13th, 1972 in Montreal, Canada. He passed away peacefully and surrounded by family on March 15th, 2020 in Orlando, Florida at 48 years of age. Davide was a cherished Son, loving Husband, proud Father, loyal Brother, loved Uncle to many nieces and nephews and a wonderful friend to many. He leaves behind his parents (Pina and Giovanni), his wife (Olga), his children (Nicholas, Olivia, Michael), his siblings (Marco and Nadia) his many nieces and nephews (Cassandra, Thomas, Sabrina, Adriana, Jackson, Lilliana and Ava), and many other relatives and friends. He is preceded in death by his Grandparents (Pio, Italia, Elio, Chiara), Uncles (Frank and Luigi) and other relatives. David was the first of three children and the first of several grandchildren. He was a true ray of sunshine for many when he was born. In his early life, Davide was a fun loving free spirit, who loved life and to let his sense of fun and humor shine. He was always up for an adventure and a good time! David later became a mastered Chef. He had a genuine passion for being in the kitchen and took pride in his craft. In partnership with his brother, he proudly helped manage several restaurants over his 24 year career. Outside of work, Davide was a laid back, kind person who took pride in his entire family near and far. He had a sincere interest in others and was always more than happy to lend an ear. He was devoted to his wife who he loved and cherished deeply. He was excited for the future and the many new adventures that were set to take place both personally and professionally. Davide will be terribly missed and remembered fondly by his family and friends.

I remember the first time I met Dave. I rang the doorbell at his home in Kirkland to ask his younger brother to play street hockey. I was surprised when Dave answered the door. I had seen him at school earlier that week with all the older tougher kids. He looked at me straight in the eyes. I wasn’t sure if this was the right house. After a good 5 seconds (which seemed like an eternity), he asked me “are you Italian?” . I said “yeah”. This huge smile from cheek to cheek escaped Dave’s face and he invited me in. He was so friendly and called me “Cheech” .
From that day forward, he was so good to me. He was the one who trained me at my first job at Cavallaro. He had such a way about him. Sure he was tough and really cool but he had the biggest heart. Over the years, I ran into him every now and then and each time I would see him, that huge genuine smile that he gave me that day I rang the doorbell came back. He was always so happy to see me and always made time to talk with me.
My sincerest condolences to the family. My thoughts are with you . I will always keeps Dave’s memory close to my heart. D.C.
Fiona Costello says

Gerry Harris says
With deepest condolences, I remember David from my early teenage yrs in the West island, tough as nails he was and a huge heart for those close to him…looking at his picture shows he has stood against the hands of time as he looks as he had never aged.
David will be dearly missed amongst his friends from the West Island and with his personality that can probably be only one small area of the map that he has touched on.
So sorry for your loss

Such a loss of a son, husband, father, brother so young and who was loved by so many and will be greatly missed. May you all find strength together during this difficult time.

Eva Martins says
Words are inadequate at a time like this, but I wanted you to know how very sorry I am that your son has passed away. The loss of a son is a tragic event, and I cannot imagine the pain and suffering you are experiencing. It is times like this that our faith is put to the test. The Bible does promise: “Blessed are those that mourn for they shall be comforted.” I pray that this will be especially true for you as you mourn your loss. I pray that God will give you the strength to see you through this sad and difficult time. My thoughts and prayers are with you and all your family! Sincerely,
Eva Martins

My deepest condolences, David was my first friend in elementary school. I started halfway through grade one. He let me stand in line In front of him and pushed me on the swing. I got my first love note on Valentine’s Day A poem “ I like you so much I sand a song” – will always remember him with his curly hair and baseball hat always a friendly happy kid.
