Cirilo Antonio Ancheta
1923 - 2021
With great sadness we announce the passing of our father, Cirilo A. Ancheta on March 13, 2021 at the age of 98. Strong in spirit to the end. He was a loving and devoted husband, father, brother, uncle, grandfather and a friend. He's gone to join his loving wife Adriana and son Gerry.
He leaves behind his ten children, Minda Rudakewich, Fely (Willy Ulanday+) Frank (Rina), Alma (Efren Poca) Cristy (Sechai Chua), Shirley (Ed Jones), Angie (Philip Baisa), Evelyn (Francis Lam) Gerry+( Elma) and Ruel Ancheta, 29 grandchildren and 28 great-grandchildren.
He was a self made man. At a young age, him and his four other siblings were orphaned. He was a working student, and finished his teaching career in the Philippines. He was a school teacher and became Principal and Administrator. He was a farmer and land owner. He was a Philippines Boy Scout Master and was at 10th World Jamboree at Mt. Makiling, Laguna, Philippines. He was once a ghost writer for the mayor and other political leaders in his home country, Philippines. Dad also worked at the U.S. Clark Air Force Base, Logistic Army Veterans.
He emigrated to Canada in 1977 with his daughter Shirley to join the other two daughters Minda and Fely and son Frank, and the rest of the family followed after. He worked for the City of Kamloops for 10 years and retired from there. He was an active member of the Filipino/Canadian Association and was a President for many years. He loved to garden (flowers and vegetables) and won a few awards for his gardening skills.
Our Dad was a very hardworking man. He was very kind and helpful to others. He was loved by many for his kindness and generosity. He was always positive and could always see the good in everyone who is around him. He is a strong believer that God has a plan for everyone.
The family would like to send our sincere gratitude and thanks for the excellent care he has received from all his caregivers, especially to his loving daughter Cristy and husband Sechai, who cared for him for years until his passing. Thank you for the incredible love, care and attention you gave to our father.
Due to Covid-19 restrictions a celebration of Dad's life will be held in the future when we can gather all together again.
