My Friend,
There is never a day that I don't think of you. You will never be forgotten, and will always be in my heart. I hope you are up in heaven, with my Mum and Dad smiling down on all the people who love you so much. Please kiss my Mum for me, and look after her. Until we meet again, keep that beautiful smile on your face, love K

good morning papa, i am at work today, i have a really bad sore throat though. i am thinking of you, and i love you. i wish you were here, working at the stock exchange and i could meet you for lunch like we used to. i thought of you when i got on the train too. i will try to go by the garden tonight and pick some arugula and basil and whatever else looks good enough to pick. i will ask your friends if they are ready, i dont want to pick anything that is not ready. i will talk to you later papa, i have to get to work before i styart to cry again. i dont want people seeing me cry here. i love you. very much.

hi papa today was the last day i got to see you. i wish it haddnt been. you shouldnt have been sick. you did not deserve to be sick because you had a big heart and you loved everyone. i left a note in your pocket, along with something we got in italy which i took off your fridge this morning. i am with sara and chris wight now, i never seen them cry the way they did today for you. i took care of them. i took care of nonnie today too. i will be going to see Karen a lot more especially for you - i knew she was you best friend and you always went to her, she said i now have an auntie karen. i still cannot believe it that youre not here. i walk in the house and expect you to ask who it is coming in. i expect you to tell me to not stay out too late. ill still hear you thought. chris has been there for me through this. my little brother is being my big brother... he is keeping me sane. i dont know what to do these days. we left the uno cards in the casket for you too, we know how much you liked ot play uno after we ate over. i dont think i will play for a long time. it is not the same. i was better today than i was yesterday. i tried to be strong, i know you wont want me to cry because you think i will get a headache, and you are right. a lot of people came to see you. you touched many people in your life, and everyone told me how special i was to you, how i was the most important person to you (aside from nonnie) . and i knew that. i know i have the best papa in the world.. . . i miss you and i love you. if i cant come back on to tell you good night- have a good night, and keep me safe. i will pray for you. watch over us, i will talk to you in the morning.
you are never far from me.

My condolences to the Defno family. I knew Gino for many years at the Boston Stock Exchange and was proud to say he was my friend. I'm sure the stars in Heaven are a lot cleaner and shining brighter, now that he is there.

Gino,
I hadn't seen you in a long time but knowing you while at One Boston was a wonderful experience. You had such a big heart and were so patient with the craziest of crazies. You were also the best host when we visited Italy in 1996. I wish I had known you were sick so I could have visited. My best to you too Maria, you are a wonderful woman and I know how much Gino loved you.

I remember his face with a smile staring through the glass door of my office calling me to step outside, smoke a cigarette and talk about everything nothing. He touched us all, even the ones that knew him only for short while. He will be missed. My deep condolonces to all of his family and all the people that knew him.

Maria, Mike, Caroline and Chris: My heart goes out to all of you at this sad time. To lose someone you love so deeply is tragic but our faith lets us believe that some day we will see them again. He is now an angel on your shoulders and he will be with you always. Take one day at a time and just be there for each other. It won't be easy but your memories of him will live on forever. God Bless.
Love, Nina

Dear Maria and Family,
We are so very sorry to hear about Gino.It doesn't seem possible. I remember working with him at 60 State during highschool and college. He had a wonderful personality and he was always smiling.

Gino,
My heart is sore, I only hope you knew just how much I loved and cherished our friendship. the love you had for your family, and the pride you felt for them was evident in all you said and did. I will miss you my friend and I will never forget the friendship we shared. I will miss your boyish laugh the most. Your love for your wife inspired me to believe in forever. God Bless you and keep you by his side where you belong. thank you for being my friend.

i dont know what to say - except that i love you. i dont know what i will do with out you. you have been there for me for EVERYTHING. anything i needed you provided. you taught me a lot and i will always carry that with me in my heart. you were a very special person to me and to everyone around you. you touched everyones heart and you were like a grandfather to some of my friends. i couldnt have asked for anyone else to be my papa. you always put others ahead of yourself. i looked up to you when i was little, and i still do. no one will ever take your place in my heart. i know you dont want me to cry, and i try not to but i am sad that you wont be home anymore. i wont have anyone to play keno with at jevelis. i hope you take care of me from up there and tell nonna, zia, mammanonne and papanonne that i love them all and to keep us all safe. i will always be thinking of you and i will always LOVE YOU.
i love you
