Marcello was born on April 4, 1977 in Kamloops. He attended Lloyd George Elementary, John Peterson Junior Secondary and then graduated from Kamloops Secondary School. He then moved on to complete his C.A.S.T. Diploma at UCC, which enabled him to start his career at BCLC in 1998. Throughout his career at BCLC, he was known as a kind, gentle man and a dedicated employee. He developed many important friendships at BCLC, especially "the crew."
Marcello's memorable past times, besides spending time with his loving family and friends, included his truck that he loved and kept in immaculate condition, loved road hockey, dirt biking, fishing, tinkering on computers, and especially music, having taught himself to play the drums. As a teen, he was in a band, "The Shoebox Coupons," and he continued to play drums throughout his life, and was recently taking guitar lessons.
He always had a passion for learning, and was always striving for success. He was always willing to lend a hand to help others. We will always remember his beautiful, cheerful smile.
