June 8, 1935 – Cuberton, Italy March 19, 2016 – Calgary, Alberta It is with great honour that we hand our loving father, Antonio (Nino) Del Bello, over to the open arms of God on Saturday, March 19, 2016, at the age of 80. He was born in Cuberton, Italy and immigrated to Canada in 1957. Antonio was an incredibly hard working man. His work ethic was an inspiration to many. After setting roots in Calgary, Nino established a successful contracting company. Upon retirement, Nino loved to go hunting, fishing and spent countless hours gardening. Every Wednesday he would get together with his friends and play cards at the Italian Church. Nino’s biggest pride and joy was his family.
