Loving husband of Sherri Cristo (nee Jalsich). Loving father of Jordan (Faith) and Cassandra (predeceased). Survived by his father Gaspare Cristo and predeceased by his mother Adele (nee Calisi). Brother of Marissa (predeceased) and Frank. Cosimo will be missed by many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins and friends. Cosimo worked for Vale as a heavy equipment mechanic for many years. It was a job he was very good at and he was very well respected by his peers. He had a passion for dog training as well. He was an avid member of the springer spaniel community and loved to help anyone and everyone learn different techniques of training. He was never afraid to share his secrets so that everyone could benefit. In his spare time, he loved hunting and fishing and he really enjoyed spending time with family and friends, especially in the summer. Family and friends gathered at Island Funeral Home on Tuesday, April 4, 2023 from 4 to 9 pm. A memorial mass will follow at St. Bernard’s Church in Little Current on Wednesday, April 5, 2023 at 11 am with Father Hutton officiating.
