Dear members of the Catanzano family,

I was out of state when Sal passed away and would like to express my sympathies to all of you.

I first met Sal when my kids were old enough to play baseball. They played for him during the summer traveling season and I helped coach.

Since that point in time, we have remained friends, but unfortunately, my schedules at two colleges and business responsibilities have not allowed us to see much of each other.

My family is saddened by your loss. Both of my boys, John and Michael, had fond memories of those "good old days" playing ball for Sal, and when I told them of his demise, they each had a particular story to tell me about Sal and Little League baseball.

I have lost an old friend...May he rest in peace.

I remember Sal well. He coached my 3 boys in Little League many, many years ago. What I remember most was his enjoyment...and the fact that the focus was on having fun playing the game. He taught them to be gracious losers and good winners.

I am so sorry for your loss.
