To the Trovato Family, If there is a nicer guy in Dedham, I would be hard pressed to find him. All people die. But there love never does. It continues to live in the people they've loved and the people who've loved them.

Mr. T,
I've had the pleasure of knowing you and your family, especially Judy, for 40+ years. I've felt a member of your family as you all have surely been members of mine. A gentle giant with that ever present smile comes to mind when I think of you. At your 50th anniversary party, I saw and felt the love. Love for Mrs. T, your kids, and grandkids. I had the pleasure of taking many treasured pictures that night and on so many other occassions- like pizza parties! My friendship with Judy all these years has been a staple in my life. Please know that more people love you today than ever before. You will see-you already know. I will miss you. Thank you for being such a warm, happy, welcoming presence in my life and the lives of so many others. I speak for Robbie, Russ, Dan and all of my family.
Love, Pat
