My deepest sympathies go out to you and your family. Much love to you all. ❤️❤️
As a Saanich policeman for 30 years, I got to know Lui when he worked at the Municipal yard. That friendship carried on into retirement, especially at Hillside Mall where we often met for a chat.
Lui was a kind, gentle and loving man and he always had that beautiful smile. I’ll miss the many times he’d say “Ricky, you gotta comma Sit here wit me” and we’d have the most wonderful chats about life at Saanich and our over fifty year friendship.
My condolences to Edvige and the entire Peluso family.

Our heartfelt condolences to your family on the passing of Luigi. I will never forget those days I used to do contract work with him at Saanich, as well as our many conversations at Gordon Head rec centre. He had a zest for life and a great sense of humour. May he rest in peace.

My heart is heavy with sadness. Lui was the best father-in-law anyone could ever have or hope for. His kind spirit and generosity will never be forgotten.
