DR. TRIESTE GUIDO VITTI All his life, Trieste had many talents. A life-long oil-painter and sketch artist, he joined the Manitoba, Artists' Association. He took courses in architectural design whose knowledge he used to build his own home, a sunken garden, deck and pergola. He spoke fluent English and Italian, and was a student of the French and German languages, notably translating German scientific journals for his PhD. He was an active member of Holy Rosary Catholic Church and the Kinsmen Re-Fit Centre. On retiring, he joined the American Rosarian Society. He loved travelling, opera, lawn bowling, Tony Bennett, ornithology, politics, philosophy, photography, walking, swimming, pugs and Boston terriers, parakeets, good movies and light comedy, good food, and produced his own wine. He was always a generous spiritual friend to those in need. In compliance with Trieste's wishes, no formal Funeral Service will be held. We would like to thank all the staff at West Park Manor Personal Care Home for the excellent care and quality of life provided to him in his last years. Donations may be sent to the Trieste and Esther Vitti Scholarship Fund at the University of Detroit Mercy, Detroit, Michigan, U.S.A. A loving and dedicated husband and father, you gave us guidance and inspiration as well as identity and pride. You were always the personal rock for whom everyone turned. Now, Dad, you are our Eternal Light, and we will love you forever. Wojcik's Funeral Chapels & Crematorium, Winnipeg, 2157 Portage Avenue, 204.897.4665 www.wojciksfuneralchapel.com
