It is with heavy hearts that the daughters of Luigi Antonio Forlin announce that he passed at home, October 27th 2019. Whether he went by the name Luigi or Louis, he was an amazing son, brother, father, uncle, grandfather, newly great-grandfather, and friend. He enjoyed spending time with his family. He was kind, loving, and fearless. Louis was always willing to help out a family member, friend, or neighbour in need. Louis keen eye for detail kept him busy. Gardening was a passion for him. The house and garden that he built at Christina Lake will be ingrained in his family's memory forever. He loved a little healthy competition when it came to gardening. Whether it be peas or tomatoes, he always had the best and biggest vegetables.
Louis was preceded by his parents, Luigi and Elizabeth Forlin, his loving wife, Doreen Forlin, his siblings John Forlin, Irene Adamkiewicz, Merica Caputo, Eva Forlin, and Bruno Forlin. He was also preceded by his brother in-laws Mickey Caputo, John Pratt, Frank Deitrich, and Bob Baldassi, and sister in-law Laura Baldassi. He is survived by his daughters and their families, Liz (Rob) McColl, Cindy (Randy) Donkersloot, Debbie (John) Boyczuk, and Mellisa (Jeff ) Johnson. His grandchildren Meighan (Nathan) Achtemichuk, Matthew McColl, Tiane (Dylan) Startup, Jessica Boyczuk (Gerry Rebelato), Jacob Boyczuk, Brandon Donkersloot, and Krista Donkersloot. His new great grandson Ethan Achtemichuk. His second wife, Lynne, and her children Lori and Mark. He leaves behind many other close nephews, nieces, and friends. He will be deeply missed and loved.
