Fabio Iannello had a bigger-than-life presence, always putting others first. He was selfless, genuine, hardworking, and endlessly giving. His warmth made people feel welcomed, supported, and understood.
Fabio found joy in so many parts of life with things like golf, sports, travel, food, family gatherings, and music. These passions were integral pieces of a life lived brightly and fully, and they reflected his care-free, stylish, approachable personality.
Above all, Fabio was a devoted father to his two boys, Essien and Masao. He was a loving son to Ray and Vicky, a caring brother to Riccardo and Danny, an uncle, and a dear friend to so many. His laughter and compassion left an impact that continues to be felt by everyone who knew him.
About Fabio
Why We Created the Foundation
In 2020, our family established the Fabio’s Bright Smiles Foundation to honour Fabio’s life and ensure that his legacy lives on. Through this foundation, we continue his spirit of kindness by raising awareness around mental health and addiction, breaking stigma, and supporting individuals and families in our communities.
All proceeds are donated to partner foundations across our city, helping expand access to mental health supports, addiction resources, and pathways toward recovery.
