ALBERTO GROSPE The family and friends of Alberto Grospe, 59, are all in shock after hearing the news of his passing on the afternoon of May 5, 2016 following a tragic accident at his workplace. Alberto was born in the Philippines where he served with the Central Armed Forces Geographical Unit (CAFGU), and concurrently worked as the president of the Tricycle Driver Association in San Jose City, Philippines. He came to Canada in 1990 and worked at various jobs. His last twelve years were spent as a CNC operator/programmer at a metals distribution factory. At the time of his death he was the treasurer of the Knights of Columbus, St. Edward's Parish Council. He will always be remembered as a shutterbug, an avid gardener, a fisherman, and most of all, a jack-of-all-trades. He will be missed by his wife Annabelle, their son Alvin, his son Al-Christian (Sylvia), his daughter Angela, his two grandchildren Christian and Nikayla, his mother Lydia, and his three siblings, Romeo (Ruby), Shirley (Oscar), and Herman (Rachel); and his inlaws the Gamboa, Petrasanta and Jiao Families.

Alberto was a hardworking great guy who always had a smile on his face and a positive attitude. We had some pretty goodtimes together over the years and will always remember are conversations and times we shared. I will remember all the gardening advise and that you can grow a honey dew from the seeds of another honey dew melon. Thanks brother, friend and work pal You will be truly missed and my deepest condolences goes out to his family. Rest in peace - Posted by: Gary girouard (Friend) on: May 16, 2016

I remember Alberto telling me about his first job in Canada. ..it was at 7-11. That was my first job too in the city. Alberto was a smart man...he continued to improve on his life. He wanted to retire back home and start a mango farm. You will be deeply missed. - Posted by: Michael Plazio (Friend) on: May 14, 2016

Alberto was not one to just let you walk by without saying hello. Alberto was hands down the most helpful guy I have ever worked with. If you were sweeping he'd grab himself a broom, struggling he'd help you out, frustrated he'd jump in and lend a hand. This man was not only a friend and a brother he was also a mentor. Alberto loved to teach and show you the most efficient way to tackle the task at hand. Alberto was a big supporter of health & safety culture and it's sad was taken from us so soon. To Alberto's family, my deepest and most sincere condolences for your loss, I'm happy to have been friends with Alberto and to have had him as part of my life. I will miss him, but I will always remember him. His legacy will remain alive and we will forever learn from what he has taught us. I will tell the story of Alberto until I can no longer tell stories. I hope others continue to tell the story as well and his memory will remain forever.
