Letter: The late Mr. Sergio Ianniciello
It is with great sadness to learn that our dear friend, Sergio Ianniciello, passed away suddenly on January 26, 2022. Sergio was with the TTC for 20 years, working in the Wiring and Service and Overhead sections. Sergio started as an assistant in Overhead, working his way up to a Leadhand position. Sergio was a hardworking and caring individual. Anyone who worked with Sergio knew he was passionate about his job and was a no-nonsense individual – direct and to the point.

He always took the time to teach and share his knowledge of the Overhead Contact System. Sergio always looked out for his crews and ensured they were well-informed and taken care of. He enjoyed sharing stories and took life as it came. Sergio was well liked and respected by all. Sergio was a family man; family was very important to him. He leaves behind a loving wife and daughter. Although he was retired, he spoke highly of the Overhead and all the individuals he had the pleasure of working with. Sergio will be missed, but not forgotten.

From Sergio’s friends in Overhead Operations, Streetcar Infrastructure
