Vittorio Cascianelli

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Vittorio Cascianelli on January 31, 2025 surrounded by his loving family. Born on February 15, 1977, in Detroit, MI, Victor made an indelible mark on the lives of many through his talented work as a designer and the positive influence he had as a leader.

Victor's career was characterized by his remarkable ability to mentor those around him, fostering talent and creativity in others within his field. His colleagues admired not only his expertise but also the warmth and positivity he exuded each day. Victor had an innate gift for uplifting spirits, perpetually bringing smiles to the faces of those fortunate enough to work alongside him.

Central to Victor's life were his beloved daughters, Vittoria and Pia. They were the joy of his life, and he cherished every moment spent with them. Whether he was enjoying a round of golf, working on hands-on projects, or indulging in his love for cars, Victor found deep pleasure in these pursuits, always with his family in close connection.

He is survived by his devoted wife, Fran Rojas, who was by his side throughout his journey - each day together finding ways to enjoy life while fighting his disease.  He leaves behind his father, Antonio Cascianelli, and his brothers, Carlo, Remo, and Anthony Cascianelli. Victor also treasured his relationships with his nieces and nephews, and all his friends he met throughout his life. Preceding him in death was his mother, Renata Cascianelli, whose memory will be honored as Victor's legacy lives on through the love he cultivated in his family and community.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Sunday, February 16 at Waterfront Hall at Jetton Park in Cornelius, NC from 3:00 PM - 6:00 PM.  The hall has a limited capacity, so if you would like to attend please RSVP with Fran 980-281-9366.

Victor's battle with cancer was met with incredible courage, and he passed away peacefully with his family at his side. He will be profoundly missed by all who knew him—his spirit continues to inspire those he has touched.
