Schnider Funeral Home is handling the arrangements.Trevor was born March 11, 1970, in Buffalo, Minnesota, to Beverly and Eugene Semenza. Trevor only lived in Minnesota for three years, but lived there long enough to become a lifelong fan of Minnesota sports teams, especially the Minnesota Vikings and Minnesota Twins. In 1974, the family moved to Dutton where Trevor attended Dutton "public" School. He played football and participated in drama and track activities for Dutton High School. Trevor graduated with the Class of 1988. After high school, Trevor entered the Navy, where he started learning his trade as a boiler tech while seeing the world. He served until 1992. He made his home in the San Francisco Bay area until 1995, when he came back to Montana for the summer to assist his dad on the farm, see his mom at her caf, and reconnect with the area until fall, at which time he planned to move on to Oregon and work with his brother. Those plans were altered on July 15, 1992, when he was attending a local wedding and met the girl who would eventually become his wife and the mother of his children. Trevor and Angela Kordonowy started their journey that summer, and he decided to relocate to Great Falls instead, while Angie attended college. Trevor started working at Central Plumbing and Heating, where he worked for 15 years.Trevor and Angie married on September 26, 1998, in Coeur dAlene, ID, surrounded as always by family and close friends. On September 13, 2004, they welcomed twins Anthony Lawrence and Meredith Michelle into their lives, completing their family and setting the pace for the next ten years. Trevor loved family life more than anything and his devotion and love for his children was boundless. The years were full of activities, practices, games, rehearsals and shows. The only thing that could tear him away from his family, was work. After working at CPH and later, VEMCO, Trevor joined up with business partners Jeff Christensen and Ted Corn in December 2012 to fulfill a lifelong dream of owning a heating and plumbing business, Falls Mechanical Services. Trevs pride in his work was obvious by the quality of the work he completed.When Trevor wasnt working, he enjoyed many activities, including golfing, fishing, watching his nieces and nephews play local sports, watching ALL sports, particularly the VIKES, and especially camping with his family and friends. He loved the mountains, and looked forward to camping every summer and into fall. Trevor never met a person he wouldnt offer his help to, and his skills and talents were unlimited. His sense of humor was quick and clever, and his laugh was infectious. Trevor was loved, and will be missed intensely.He is survived by his wife Angie and children Anthony and Meredith of Great Falls; mother Beverly (Scott) Pedersen of Dutton; father Eugene Semenza of Ferndale, WA; brothers Reed Semenza of Oakdale, CA, and Lance Semenza of Missoula; sister Kim (Brent) Heinz of Ford, WA; parents-in-law Paul and Vivian Kordonowy; many cousins; and numerous nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews.He was preceded in death by his brother Daren Semenza.
