In Loving Memory of

Nonno died at the age of 83. He will be sadly missed. He is survived by his 2 sons and 5 grandchildren: Dino (Erin, Bryan, Zoey), Jason (Kaya, Makayla, Keio) both of Clearwater B.C. His brothers, IIario (Bruna) of Regina, Sask. and Nino (Ivana) of Oderzo, Italy. His sister, Dina (Delfina) of Italy. His ex-wife, Elsie (Al). And numerous nephews and nieces.

A celebration of life will be held during the summer. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Clearwater Elk’s Lodge #499 (c/o Phyllis Bucknell, 942 Village Rd. Clearwater, BC).

Rest in Peace Nono, we will be thinking of you.
