Mr. Bonzagni,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the USN during WW II and for being a member of the Greatest Generation. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Dear Angela and family,
The Sullivans were sorry to hear of Arthur's passing. My father shared many stories about growing up in Melrose with the Bonzagni Family. His memories of the many card games with the whole clan, and having to stop to wait for Arthur's mom to pray, always brought a smile to his face.
May God bless you during this difficult time. You are in our prayers.

Dear Bonzagni Family,

I worked at NYNEX Yellow Pages in Middleton with Tina for many years. I used to see Arthur come in so he could visit and say "Hi" to everyone...he was always smiling and very happy. He usually had a funny story or a joke to share which made everyone's day a little brighter! Arthur and my dad (George Noble) worked together for many years at N.E. Tel. and I always heard about the good times that they shared together. Arthur will be missed by all that were fortunate to know him! My sincere condolences on your loss. God bless you and Arthur.
