Obituary for Concetta ( Tina ) Maria Busse

Tina Busse

January 22, 1931 - January 15, 2017.

It is with profound sadness that we announce the sudden passing of our mother, wife, Nonna, aunt, and friend, Tina Busse. Predeceased by her parents, Roberto and Clementina Lauro, and brother Robert Lauro. She is survived by her loving husband of 61 years, Dr. Lee Busse, her sister Emma Lauro, her three children: Laura-Lee Ingham (Ted), Dr. Richard Busse (Rina), Teresa Clarke (Brad), her nine grandchildren: Carmen (Meghan), Lorne, Ariana, Willis, Sofia, Olivia, Christian, Sebastian, Emma, and great-grandmother, Eloise. Tina was born in Kamloops and moved to Vancouver in 1948 to attend hairdressing school. She opened her own hair salon on Hastings street and several years later met her future husband Lee, who had recently opened a dental practice on the same street. Tina was fiercely proud of her children and grandchildren and all of their accomplishments. Tina also had a significant circle of long time dear friends, who she held extremely close to her heart. She was a force of nature, known for her vibrant personality, words of wisdom, helpful advice and generosity. She will be so deeply missed. Mass of Christian Burial to be held Friday, January 20th, 2017 at 11:00 a.m. at St. Frances de Sales Parish, 6610 Balmoral Street, Burnaby. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Covenant House.
