Mr. Forgione,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your years of dedicated service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the U.S. Army-especially during WW II. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Dear Family,
I drove a school bus with Sal for many years. He spoke often and lovingly about his boys and the love of his life, his dear wife. I think of him often and will keep him and you all in my prayers.
