It is with great sadness we announce the unexpected passing of Brian Zecchel of Coquitlam, BC. Brian was predeceased by his father Enrico and will be lovingly remembered and missed by his wife Linda, daughter Allyssa (Bill), son Jason, mother Argia, brother Gary, sister Lorena (Derrick), extended family and friends, not to forget his four legged friend Winston.

He was loved by all who knew him. He never seemed to get a break but even with his chronic back pain and other ailments, he didn't give up and suffered silently. He had a passion for woodworking, fishing and cars, if the sun was shining you were sure to see him drive up in his 70 Challenger, smiling ear to ear.

Prayers held November 6th at 7:00 p.m. at St. Clare of Assisi Parish, 2888 Delahaye Drive, Coquitlam, where a Mass of Christian Burial will take place the following morning November 7th at 11:00 a.m., Fr. Craig Scott presiding.

In lieu of flowers donations can be made to The Coquitlam Animal Shelter, online or contact 604-927-7387.
