MARINCICH, Antonio Giuseppe

—

It is with great sadness that the family of Antonio Giuseppe Marincich announces his passing on Wednesday, January 31 at the age of 84.

Antonio will be lovingly remembered by his wife of 61 years Antonia and his children Daniella (Richard) Serani and Roberto (Kerry) Marincich.

He will also be fondly remembered by his 6 grandchildren: Anthony (Christine), Leanne (Tyler), Michael (Alexandra), Emma, Daniel and Stefanie; his great granddaughter Emilia; surviving sisters Scolastica, Maria, Eufemia and brother Giuseppe.

Antonio was born on March 15, 1933 in Cittanova, Italy to Antonio and Caterina Marincich as part of a large family of 16 children.

Antonio and Antonia married December 1956 and emigrated to Halifax, Canada in 1957 and later to Cawston, BC, where they made a new life together raising their 2 children and eventually fulfilling their dream of owning their own orchard in the Similkameen Valley.

Antonio and his wife retired in 1992 to Kelowna and spent their golden years enjoying spending time with family, travelling, playing bocce, gardening, fishing and making wine.

Prayers will be recited on Tuesday, February 6th at 7:00 pm at Springfield Funeral Home, 2020 Springfield Road, Kelowna, BC.

Testimonials

They took care of me like family.

Judith Szabo

Everything was so organized and pertinent to what we needed. Everyone we met was kind, courteous and very helpful during our emotional and challenging time. Thank you so much.

Heather Mayne

They were so prompt on answering any questions and changing things. They were prepared and respected any religious decisions. The process was so seamless and made easy in such a high stress situation.

Tanya Kohar

In the past 2 years Springfield has helped us through the death of my Mother and my Father. Their response and help allowed us to focus on the remaining family rather than worrying about details of the funeral and all the notifications that are required upon a death.

Terry Eldridge

The atmosphere has been nothing but professional during times of grief.  After the passing of my mother, the staff coached me on the next steps and looked after filling in all the government forms that I needed to sign, which took a huge burden off my mind at the time.

Donald McClure

Everyone was so helpful and kind.  There was no pressure.  They provided exactly what we needed.

Diane Greenwood

From the time I called to the completion of all the services, I received compassionate, attentive and professional care.  There was a sense of caring from each staff member.  I was turning over my Mom to their care and I felt very comfortable with everyone.  I felt heard and never felt pushed into any decision.

Katherine Lewis

I have always found the team at Springfield Funeral Home to be VERY caring, kind, considerate and helpful.  I have and will continue to recommend them to anyone who asks which funeral home would I suggest they use.  No other funeral home I have dealt with even comes close to Springfield Funeral Home.

Ethna Tutt

Right at the onset, I was made very comfortable, there was no pressure.  I was made to feel as if I was the only one they had to serve.

Frances Baum

Everything that was arranged for us was perfect.  Our loved one, husband, father, brother was treated with respect.  Thank you for making this difficult time a little more acceptable via your staff’s obvious caring and respect.
