To Lucia & family;
I had the honour and privilidge of working with your husband at B.C. Tel & Telus.
I considered Lu to be so much more than a co-worker. We enjoyed many years working together and playing hockey for the “Coastal Canadians Oldtimers” I will always remember those times fondly.
Yours is a tremendous loss and I know that no words will relieve your pain. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this most difficult time.
Luciano was a righteous man whose eyes sparkled with the light of God. His good deeds in his lifetime will merit him eternal life in the heavenly realm. He was a good servant.
Psalm 91
1. He who dwells in the covert of the Most High will lodge in the shadow of the Almighty. He who takes shelter in the covert of the wings of the Shechinah he will lodge in His shadow, for the Holy One, blessed be He, protects him.
2. I shall say of the Lord [that He is] my shelter and my fortress, my God in Whom I trust.
3. For He will save you from the snare that traps from the devastating pestilence.
4. With His wing He will cover you, and under His wings you will take refuge; His truth is an encompassing shield.
5. You will not fear if you trust in Him the fright of night, the arrow that flies by day;
6. Pestilence that prowls in darkness, destruction that ravages at noon.
7. A thousand will be stationed at your side and ten thousand at your right hand; but it will not approach you.
8. You will but gaze with your eyes and you will see the annihilation of the wicked.
9. For you [said], “The Lord is my refuge”; the Most High you made your dwelling.
10. No harm will befall you; nor will a plague draw near to your tent. (Exod. 21:13)
11. For He will command His angels on your behalf to guard you in all your ways.
12. On [their] hands they will bear you, lest your foot stumble on a stone.
13. On a young lion and a cobra you will tread;
14. For he yearns for Me, and I shall rescue him; I shall fortify him because he knows My name.
15. He will call Me and I shall answer him; I am with him in distress; I shall rescue him and I shall honor him.
16. With length of days I shall satiate Him and I shall show him My salvation.
To those Luciano loved and those who loved him – Lucia, mother Carmela, son Giovanni, daughters Angela (Anthony) Pezzolla and Carina; sisters Lina (Frank) Romano and Olga (Carmelo) Repole; brother Silvano (Maria); numerous nephews, nieces and friends; always remember that his life will be Blessed and that he will always be remembered.
May God’s Blessings and healing be with you all in Luciano’s memory.
