Obituary of Bruno Garcea

GARCEA, BRUNO - with the sound of his music forever playing in the hearts and minds of his beloved family, Bruno Garcea left this earth to play his music for the angels on Friday, March 12, 2010 at the Sault Area Hospital. Beloved husband of Maria Giuseppa. Much loved father of Elizabeth Tassone (Joe) and Salvatore Garcea (Gloria). Treasured nono of Sonia Elizabeth and Michael Joseph Tassone and Anthony Bruno and Lisanna Maya Garcea. Son of the late Salvatore and Elisabetta. Brother of the late Dominic (late Carmella) Garcea, late Caterina (Giuseppe ) Valente, Frank (Giuseppina) Garcea and Biagio (Rita) Garcea. Son-in-law of the late Bernardo and Maria Rose Valente. Brother-in-law to the late Giovanni (Adolorata) Valente, late Domenico (Caterina) Valente, Brunina (Domenico) Mangiardi, Teresa (late Nicola) Rizzo, and Giuseppe (Teresa) Valente. He will be fondly remembered and greatly missed by his many cherished nieces and nephews. With the courage, love for life and unyielding joy that characterized him, Bruno was always surrounded by his beloved family. He had a great passion for life; he especially loved sharing stories from his birthplace of Brognaturo, Italy and his days spent on his family farm. Bruno will be sadly missed by his coffee break friends at Stedman's and his Bocce friends. His family will forever miss his laughter, sense of humour and jokes and will never be able to hear the accordion without fondly thinking of him. We appreciate the company and support of family and friends during this difficult journey.
