by Daniel McCarthy /Patrick Luciani, the founder of Canada’s TravelOnly travel company, passed away unexpectedly on Sunday night, according to a post by TravelOnly.
“It is with great sadness and much love that we mourn the loss of Patrick Luciani who passed away unexpectedly Sunday night.
“He will be fondly remembered as a wonderful husband, father and grandfather who made an indelible mark on the travel industry with his passion, energy and love for others,” TravelOnly wrote on its social media.
