Hugh Tedeschi

Hugh J. Tedeschi peacefully went to be with his Savior on September 1, 2013. Hugh was born to Alfred and Hilda Tedeschi on September 7, 1942. He was a respected pastor, father and mentor in different communities and is survived by his wife, Palma and four children: Cynthia, Stephanie, Jonathan, and Heather; daughter-in-law, April; grandson, Mark and brother Marvin.

He graduated from Eastern Pentecostal Bible College in 1964. After graduation, Hugh met and married the beautiful Palma Sciacca in Montreal, Quebec on August 20, 1966. Hugh went on to have a long and meaningful career as a dynamic speaker and mentor, counselor and guide -- impacting many lives with the word of God and his kind heart. It was his passion to minister to the incarcerated and abused, helping them find Christ and a better path. The family later relocated to Colorado in 1987 where Hugh continued to speak and mentor. Hugh had a vision for all pastors in Colorado to work together for the Kingdom of God.

Hugh also had a deep love for challenging his wife in the kitchen, fishing and Broncos football. He was an irreplaceable, loving force in all our lives and will be deeply missed by all whom he touched.

A Memorial Service will be held on Friday September 6, 2013 at 3:30 pm at Colorado Community Church, 2220 S. Chambers Rd., Aurora, CO 80014.
