Sebastian Frank Notaro

Sebastian Notaro passed away peacefully at the age of 97 on September 19th at his residence, Addington Place at College Harbor.

“Sibby” was born and raised in Buffalo, NY. He is preceded in death by his wife, Rosalie “Rose” Notaro; parents, Phillip Notaro and Mary Alessi Notaro; son, Duane Notaro; and brothers, Joseph and Leo. Sebastian is survived by his children, Gerald Notaro, Darlene Bowers, Cheryl Schmied, and Lauren Notaro Smith; brothers, Phillip, James, and Anthony; and sisters, Ann Insinna and Elaine Thrasher; six grandchildren; and five great-grandchildren.

After raising their family and 35 years of running Notaro Roofing Company, Rose and Sibby moved to St. Petersburg where they had wintered for years and continued to summer in Bay Beach, Ontario. Sibby also continued his love of fishing and boating for many years in Florida. He was an avid bowler, voracious reader, respected board member, and everyone’s “handyman” at their residence at Bay Point Plaza. If anything anywhere needed fixing they called on Sibby who was gracious with his knowledge and talents.
