1937 – 2016
It is with comfort that we announce that on April 15, 2016 our Father and Nonno, Antonio Frasca, has joined his beloved Wife Cesira.
Antonio leaves to mourn his children Pino (Sandra) and Robert (Deborah) of Kamloops, Cathy (Dean) of Prince George and Bart (Christy) of Redwood Meadows, Alberta and his grandchildren Ashley, Alishia, Daniela, Breanna, Rebecca, Ryan, Rachel, Vienna, Ava, Adam and Maisie. He is also survived by his sister Ninette of Manoppello, Italy and sister-in-law Mary of Kamloops, BC as well as extended family throughout Canada and Italy.
Dad was predeceased by his wife of 53 years Cesira (2014), bother-in-law Perry (2014), sister Anna (1999) and parents Jiuseppe (1970) and Amalia (1994).
Dad was born in Manoppello, Pescara, Italy and immigrated to Canada in 1960. Dad married Mom in Thunder Bay, Ontario and raised their family there until 1971 when they moved to Kamloops. Dad was bricklayer and well known throughout the community for his exceptional mason skills. Dad will always be remembered for his time spent with family and friends enjoying a glass of wine.
A very special thank you to Natatie Manhard NP and Dr. Hamilton MD for the compassionate care they provided.
Those wishing to pay their respects by viewing, may do so on Wednesday, April 20, 2016 from 6:30-7:30 pm in the Schoening Funeral Chapel.
The Reverend Father Paul Simms will celebrate the Funeral Mass on Thursday, April 21, 2016 at 11:00 am at OLPH Catholic Church. Interment will follow at Hillside Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, donations in Antonio’s name may be made to the Kamloops Hospice Association, 72 Whiteshield Crescent S., Kamloops, BC V2E 2S9.
