Gino Marrocco

30-Dec-1939 - 10-May-2019

 

He was not on the list.

Gino Marrocco was born on December 30, 1939. He was an actor, known for Tommy Boy (1995), Cinderella Man (2005) and Police Academy (1984). He died on May 10, 2019 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

He left Alliste (Lecce) Italy at the age of thirteen to emigrate to Canada, Toronto, where, thanks to a long career as an actor, his image and talent have been appreciated in cinemas around the world. It dates back to about thirty years ago the last time Gino Marrocco (at the registry office Egidio Giuseppe) had returned full of "nostalgia" to Salento (Puglia), the place of his origins that he carried always and everywhere with him, in his heart. To give news of his death due to an incurable illness, at the age of 79 years old in April 2019, was his daughter Ashley. Gino was born in Alliste, while the nearby Felline was the place of origin of his dear "Mamma Nena". Before joining his father Augusto, who had emigrated to Canada sometime earlier, Marrocco had attended secondary school in Gallipoli

He passed away peacefully after a long and courageous battle with cancer on Friday, May 10th at the age of 79. Loving husband of Josy. Cherished father of Ashley(Jay) and Adam(Aurora). Proud Nonno of Alyssa, Ava, Layla and Alden. Gino will also be sadly missed by many friends and family.
