Chris, I'm so sorry to read about your father's passing and your mother's passing in 1998. It is so hard, I'm sure, to lose both parents. I hope that memories of your parents suffice to give you comfort. Bless. Walt Mc

I will miss Sal as much as every one else. He was a wonderful doctor and his talent made my life much better. I saw him several times when he was living in Northpointe woods and he was always so full of life and I enjoyed talking to him there. Rest in peace and know how much you are loved.

Dr. Yannitelli was our family doctor through all six kids and then some. He always made you laugh no matter how bad it was. He was a great doctor and a great family man.

To Chris, Peter & Tom,
Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your families during this time. Sal was a wonderful friend and companion to my grandmother for many years and for that we are truly thankful. He will be missed, but his life should be celebrated for his many achievements and friends he made over the years.
Sincerely,

To the Yannitelli Family:
I knew Sal from my time working at NPW. Sal was a charachter and half and I really enjoyed knowing him. I will always remember "Fruits & Roots" a comment he told me about healthy eating when seeing me with Pizza. I will always remember his bigger than life personality. You have my deepest sympathies

Dr. Yannitelli was my doctor since childhood until he retired. I was then old enough to look for a doctor on my own, only to find there were none out there like the kind, smiling, always knew you, doctor I had experienced. I have thought of this beloved man often over the years and truly missed that feeling of caring he always administered to his patients. My deepest sympathy to the family, he is a kind soul who will be missed by many. Touching many lives in a positive way is a real blessing, and this is one man that has done this just by entering a room. Bless You...

my parents went with dr. soon after he opened his practice and he was our family dr. untill he retired. he was a kind and friendly man. we have never had another dr. like him. my parents were poor and when i had to br hospitalized for a month with an infection he was my dr. years later wen my parants passed i found the hospital bill for the stay. it was $300. i brleive he had some thing to do with that. when i became an ececutive with a local co. and had my annual physical with him he would drive the office nurses crazy by taking me into his office and lecturing me on the evils of smoking (while he was smoking) and then spend 30 t0 40 mins getting updated abut all the family. my wife was from another country and was nervous on her first vist to the dr. he made her fell right at home and she looked forward to seeing him. our daughter loved him also. we are sorry he passed on but know he had a long and wonderful life and brought happiness where ever he went. with the greatest respect dick and jo ann hayes tucson az.

Dr. Yannitelli was my dr. for many, many years. When I was 18 years old he even took my tonsils out. I always felt comfortable talking to him and having him treat me for any ailment. He would walk into the room with that big smile, and asked how I was doing. He was such a caring, and wonderful person. I have yet to find another dr. that I like as well. He always made you feel special, and that you were the most important person to him during your visit. May you rest in peace, Dr. Yannitelli

Impressionable, infectious, caring, quick with his wit & humor and a smile--Sal Yanitelli, MD, will not be forgotten. On behalf of the entire membership of the Calhoun County Medical Society--of which he was a regular attender--our deepest sympathy to Dr. Y's family and more friends than he could count! We are all blessed by the long and extraordinary life of this remarkable human being! Even ordering a cake, a fond story could be told of him! Thank you, Dr. Jones, for celebrating his contributions to the Calhoun County Medical Care Facility!

I knew Sal through Betty Leitch and her daughter Sally, and I always found Sal to be warm and fun to be with. I enjoyed our conversations about his life growing up in the Hudson Valley. He was an engaging person, full of life, a good bridge player, and I know he will be missed by his friends and family.

Our deepest sympathy goes out to all of the Yannitelli family at the loss of your wonderful father and grandfather. We will always remember Sal from Dom and Katy's wedding and how, at 90 years old, he out-danced most of us! May you find comfort in knowing that he lived life to the fullest and was so loved and respected by all.

The comment about Dr. Yannitelli lighting up a room with his charismatic personality is an understatement. He was absolutely infectious with his smile and upbeat attitude on anything. He was a wonderful neighbor and I wish his family my deepest condolenses.

Dr. Yannitelli brought my son into this world on Jan. 27, 1967, he was suppose to go skiing but because of the worse snowstorm in years he was stuck at his office on North Avenue, I arrived at community hospital by amblance and he skied over. That night he delivered my son and 8 other baby boys and one little girl. He cared for us for many years.
He was a wonderful doctor and treated his patients as friends he will be missed.

Dom and family,
Please accept the Torvik family condolences. Your Grandfather was a very dapper, sharp man. I was fortunate to meet him at yours and Katy's wedding, even had the chance to have a dance with him.
I know you will miss him, but he is in good hands.

He was our family doctor for several years. My daughter-in-law talked Doc into letting her have a natural childbirth with my son present, he told them he was impressed because it was his first experience. (1971).
He was truly missed when he retired and will be for many for a long time.

To the Yannitelli Family my prayers are with you in your time of need. Doctor Yannitelli was the best doctor I ever had he was not just a doc he was a dear friend to me. He listen to you and talk to you as if you were more then a patient. He knew I with to school with Thomas and Pete. I will miss my dear friend deeply but I will cherish the memory we shared as friends and patient. No doctor could ever take his place. May God bless and keep you during this time and always and forever. I'll never forget you Doc. you will always remain in my heart. Thomas and Pete i'm glad to have known you in school share some class with Pete you have a wonderful Father he spoke highly of you.

Back in the 80's, I worked as a housekeeper for the Yannitelli's. In the beginning, I addressed him as Dr. Yannitelli but he insisted that I call him Sal. He was so down-to-earth and one of the most pleasant persons I had ever met. I will always remember his beautiful smile and kind nature. May you rest in peace, "Sal".
