Egidio Casavecchia

January 6, 2017

Our beloved father, Egidio Casavecchia, passed away peacefully at University Hospital on Friday, January 6, 2017, in his 88^th year surrounded by love with his children Cristina, Gina and Tino (Sheryl) at his side. He was a most loving Nonno to Jessica (Marc), Paolo, Matthew, Marco (Megan), Vanessa (Adam) and Luca; a proud Bisnonno to Enzo and Demari; a kind brother to Iolanda, Igino, Cesare (Italy) and Vincenzo (London, Ontario); a generous father-in-law, Zio and Cugino; who has now joined his predeceased father (Paolo) and mother (Eclantina) in everlasting peace. We will miss him greatly and cherish all the wonderful memories and life values he bestowed upon us. A private family entombment at St. Peter’s Mausoleum has taken place. A memorial visitation will be held on Tuesday, January 10, 2017 from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. at WESTVIEW FUNERAL CHAPEL, 709 Wonderland Road North, London. Donations in Egidio’s memory to the Canadian Diabetes Association or the Alzheimer Society London and Middlesex would be appreciated. A special “thank you” to our mother, Barbara, for the care she provided to Papa. We will always be grateful to her. Thank you also to University and Parkwood Hospitals’ doctors, nurses and therapists; CCAC; and Chartwell Nursing Home.

I worked for Egidio in the early 1970's at the Esso Station at the corner of Wharncliffe and Tecemseh apprentise mechanic and pumping gas at 49.9 cents per gallon. Then a while latter I worked for him as an Apprentice Mechanic at his station at Adelaide South by the river. I called him Eddy and he was always more than fair to work with Eddy's English was difficult to understand and I learnt a great deal from him. Family were always important to him him and would drop by the Station frequently. I am sure that your loss is great and want you to know that you are thought of at this time. Brad Gardiner
