Dear Marie and Family:

Please accept my sincere condolences to you and your family for your loss. Nick along with so many others will always be a part of us forever...gone but never forgotten.

It's been almost 10 years since I had last seen you before we all went our separate ways....you and Nick moving to Florida and me to Arizona.

Christine Wilder and Paul Graham also wish to extend their sympathy to you and your family during this time.

Take care,

Hey Joey,
I'm so sorry to hear of your Dad's passing.
The 1st thing I thought about, when I read Newsday, was how he loved being on the football field with you. As intense as some of the games were, no matter if it was Hicksville Crusaders or HHS Comets, he was a great coach because he was a great father....and he was a great father because he was a great coach!

Cherish these & all of your memories. Know that you'll be in my thoughts & prayers through these difficult times. Please send my regards to your Mom, Alice, Vito & all of your families.
