Franco's obituary

Francis (“Franco”) Joseph Ruberto, born on March 24, 1940, in Lockport, New York, passed away peacefully surrounded by loved ones on January 31, 2025 in Castle Rock, Colorado. Born on Easter Sunday to his loving parents, Rose and Angelo Ruberto, Franco brought light and joy into the world from the very beginning.

He grew up alongside his two brothers, Don and Jim, and his sister, Rene. He is survived by his wife Marcy and three children, Matthew, Nicholas, and Patrick. Known for his easy going spirit, Franco had a unique ability to bring people together. Whether it was through a warm home-cooked meal or simply creating cherished moments with loved ones, he made life’s simple joys unforgettable.

Franco will be remembered fondly by all who knew him. His legacy of kindness and the love he shared will live on in the hearts of those who hold him dear. May his memory bring comfort and inspiration to all who remember him.

In lieu of flowers and to honor the memory of Franco, donations can be made to Franco Strong through the V Foundation to support cancer research.
