Amelia Garcea Daughter of Antonio and Josephine Scarcello, was born on May 19, 1915 in Rathdrum (Twin Lakes), Idaho. She passed away during the morning hours of January 1, 2007. Amelia married Carme (Chet) Garcea on October 27, 1934. Chet and his brothers owned the Western Bottling Company on East Sprague in Spokane. Her husband acquired the franchise to bottle Pepsi-Cola in 1939. After her husband's death in 1951, she acquired a job at the Juvenile Detention Home in Spokane. She worked there several years, and then went to work for Jensen and Byrd's downtown store in Spokane. After Jensen and Byrd closed their downtown store, Amelia went to work for Spokane School District #81. She worked at various schools during her tenure with the school district. She spent the most years at North Central High School. She retired from Spokane District #81 in 1980. Her favorite hobbies were planting and raising flowers. She wrote a comprehensive history on the Scarcello Family (her maiden name), and entitled it "The Way It Was - The Scarcello Saga from 1800 to 1988." The book is a comprehensive history of her ancestors in Italy, and her life story of growing up at Twin Lakes, Idaho. Through the years, she was very active in church functions at St. Anthony Catholic Church in Spokane. She is survived by her three sons: Raymond Garcea, Richard Garcea and Joseph Garcea, all of Spokane; five sisters: Sylvia D'Ambrosio of Portland, OR, Flora Braunstein of Portland, OR, Esther Travis of Coeur d'Alene, ID; Carmela Dempsey of Spokane, Julia Wilson of Hanford, CA; and her brother, Arthur Scarcello of Twin Lakes, ID on the Scarcello family farm. Amelia's greatest attribute was always wanting to help other people. She will be missed by her family and many friends.
