BRUNO VIRGINIO (BOB) COMAZZETTO
April 2, 1925 – February 28, 2017

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Bob Comazzetto, at the age of 91 years. He was predeceased by his wife, Josephine in 2003.
Bob was born and raised in Kamloops, calling Valleyview his home. It was in Valleyview where he and Josephine built and operated Bob’s Motel for more than 20 years. He was the first manager for Noca Dairies when they opened a branch in Kamloops.
Bob is probably most remembered for his passion for gardening (he was already planning this year’s garden). In the summer months it was where you were most likely to find him. In the winter months, until recently, you would find him at the Blazer games. He was an ardent fan. Bob was happiest when surrounded by friends and family. His home was a gathering spot for his many friends where they would often stop by for a visit, cup of coffee and muffins or cookies that he loved to bake. 
Bob was very active in the community. He was an honorary and long-time active member of the Cristoforo Colombo Lodge where he enjoyed working with the bar committee, as well as socializing with the public and his friends. 
His faith was very important to him and as a devoted member of Sacred Heart Cathedral and served as a faithful usher for many, many years.
Bob was the fifth born in a family of ten children. He is survived by his sisters, Enes Christianson and Emma Durigon, his brother Reno (Stella) Comazzetto and sister-in-law’s, Helen Comazzetto and Jenny Comazzetto. He is also, lovingly remembered by his many nieces, nephews and extended family.
The family would like to thank Dr. Chiu and the nursing staff on 4 North at Royal Inland Hospital for their care and respect for Bob and providing exemplary care to keep him as comfortable as possible.
Prayers will be recited at Sacred Heart Cathedral on Monday, March 6, 2017 at 5:00 p.m. Father Fred Weisbeck will celebrate the Mass of Christian Burial on Tuesday, March 7, 2017 at 11.00 a.m. Private Entombment to follow at Evergreen Mausoleum.
Donations, in Bob’s memory, may be made to Royal Inland Hospital Foundation, 311 Columbia Street, Kamloops, B.C., V2C 2T1.
