Sommacal family

Walter Foreshew remembers a Marco & Mary Sommacal family that had emigrated from Italy, unknown whether the entire family was involved in the assembly, but of the children, Walter remembers Samuel Frederick Sommacal (1889-1967) who the Lord led to Toronto to engage in chiropractic work, as well as John Sommacal, who briefly engaged in evangelistic work in Alberta. There was a John Mark Sommacal that was born 1894 or 1895 that was a brother of Samuel, as well as another John, 1903-1965, who was a son of Samuel’s brother Joseph. In the 1970s and 1980s, Sam lived in the Leaside area of Toronto in a home with his two single sisters Susanna and Aadline. They attended Leaside Bible Chapel after Central Hall closed. John Sommacal also lived in the area and did a small amount of itinerant preaching and evangelism.
