Forever loved and fondly
remembered by all his
nieces, nephews, paesani
e amici in Australia and Italy.
Oreste always had a smile
on his face, an infectious
zest for life and did not
take life too seriously.
He loved to tell a “true story”
and was always armed with
“scersi e barzellette”
His fun sense of humour
touched many lives and he
could always be counted
on to brighten up a room.
Oreste was a WARRIOR
to the end.
Our hearts are broken
but we find comfort in
the many wonderful memories
and stories that we will cherish forever.
We would like to sincerely thank
all of the dedicated staff
at the QEH who cared
for Oreste in his final days.
