I attend Holy Rosary Parish and want to express to the family of the late Mr. Conia that I am fondly thinking of him. His friend Linda gave me a massive amount of tools to help myself in life whenever I am facing the biggest challenges. - Posted by: Philip (Bocce player and champion) on: Sep 22, 2021

Caro nonno, ti penso molto e mancherai caro. Si farà sempre parte della mia vita e so che starà a guardare su di me per sempre. Sono così felice i momenti speciali che avevamo condiviso insieme. I tempi di divertimento a casa tua, andare insieme a vedere la spettacoli automobili dall'altra parte della strada e giocare fuori insieme. Sono ricordi che mi amare per sempre. Buonanotte. Mantenere forte. Ti amo. - Posted by: Luigi Vittorio Conia (Grandson) on: Aug 25, 2012

Mr. Conia was a very lovely man both to us and our infant children at the time. He always had a brilliant smile and a warm character. He raised a beautiful family with his wonderful wife who was equally warm and loving. We will cherish his memory from a distance as we reside in British Columbia and regretfully cannot attend the services. Our prayers are with Mr. Conia and his family. - Posted by: Chuck and Kelli Partridge (Friend of Family) on: Jul 28, 2012

It is with great sadness that I write this note remembering a great man that has had a profound influence on how I interact with people. Mr. Conia to me is class personified. To use a much misused phrase, Mr. Conia was definatley cut from premium cloth. Though I have been friends with his sons since my teenage years, I have known him for the same 30 plus years. He was always be ready to have a lengthy conversation with me reagrdless where we were and what his plans might have been. Always respectful of my opinions and dignified with his responses (no matter how out of whack my opinions were). What I remember most about our friendship is that for 30 years and no matter how often I offered, he not once allowed me to pay for coffee. If you know his sons, you have a glimpse of how classy Mr. Conia is. My deepest condolences to Mrs. Conia, Mike, Ralph and their families. - Posted by: Romeo Di Girolamo (Family friend) on: Jul 28, 2012
