Eugenio passed away at home on the morning of September 12, 2012 with his loving wife and daughters by his side, after a short battle with lung cancer.
Eugenio is survived by his wife Renate, daughters Diana (Randy), Lucy (Karl); grandchildren Brittney (Kaylan), Michelle (Ron), Daryl and Kirsten; and great-grandson Brenden. He also leaves behind two sisters and numerous nephews and nieces.
Eugenio was born in Gemona Del Friuli, Italy and came to Canada in 1954, moving to 100 Mile House in 1958 where he met and married Renate in 1960.
Eugenio started his career in the lumber industry at the sawmill in Tatton, later on the Jens sawmill and eventually moving onto Ainsworth Lumber in 1965, where he remained until he retired in 1998. Eugenio loved the outdoors, whether it be camping, fishing or just going for a drive. His greatest pride being his grandchildren and great-grandson.
