On Thursday, October 26, 2023, Mr. Francisco da Silva Pacheco of Oliver passed away peacefully at McKinney Place Extended Care at the age of 94 years.
He was predeceased by his loving wife Fernanda; brother, Jaime and sister-in-law Evangelina.
Francisco will be fondly remembered by his children, Maria, Jaime (Eniel) and George (Kelly); grandchildren, Jennifer, Shawn, Megan, Kyle, Jeremy and Dustin; twelve great-grandchildren and one great-great-grandchild.
Francisco was born in Southern Portugal on April 24, 1929 and passed away on October 26, 2023. Between those dates, he lived a good and full life. He was the 4th of 5 children born to Isabel Eugenio and Ivo Pacheco.
He was known by many names, Francisco, Chico, Frank, Uncle Frank, Senior Francisco, Don Francisco, Fella and to one little grandson, Pappa Pella. He wore many hats.
In 1952, he married his sweetheart Fernanda Dias, and through good times and bad, they were together until her passing in 2020. In 1957, he left Portugal and joined his younger brother in Canada. From Southern Portugal to 100 Mile House, where it was 30 below for the first month in this new country. He was joined by his wife and two children after 22 months, at the end of 1958.
Francisco was a risk taker, so in 1963 he moved the family to Oliver, where he tried to make a better life for the family, but it did not work as he had hoped, and in 1964, the family moved back to 100 Mile House. By now, there were 3 children. In 1971, he uprooted the family once again with a move to Vancouver where he purchased a backhoe and started his own business. Unfortunately, that did not work out as he had planned, and in 1973 he, mom and George moved back to 100 Mile until 1990 when they both retired and decided it would be fun to return to Portugal where Francisco managed a successful business with a partner in England. In 2003 they returned to Canada in in 2004 they purchased a home in Cherry Grove Estates where they lived until 2018 when they moved to Sunshine ridge in Osoyoos.
A funeral mass will be celebrated at 1:00 pm, Friday November 3, 2023 at Christ the King Catholic Church followed by interment and committal at the Oliver Municipal Cemetery. A reception hosted by the CWL in the church lower hall will follow the committal.
