IdaMarie, Alex, & Louie,
Please accept our belated condolences on Poppy's passing. He was a true angel on earth. I never heard him say a bad word about anyone. He was just a wonderful man. I'm sorry I didn't learn about this before now. It tells me I need to do a better job of staying in conact with my good friends. God Bless.

Dear Aunt Mates, Dolly, Luanne, and family,
My Uncle Lou was such an influence in my life and my Jenni's. I always remember Uncle and my Dad doing things for us to make our childhood special, like building a go cart for my brother Donnie and of course trying it out themselves!!!
But most of all I will always treasure the childhood memories we made together as our families grew up side by side. Our lives are threaded with the tapestry of the gift of your father.

Dear Aunt Marty,Idamarie and Luann.Uncle Louie was a very special man.Everyone that knew him loved him.I had the pleasure of having him for an uncle who for several years,lived right next door.After my own father died, he was right there for me and treated me like I was one of his own children.Even though over the years I saw him frequently during visits back to Buffalo,It just never seemed to be enough.His gentle smile,his comedian like antics,His love of his family and friends,are just a few things I will NEVER forget.May God help you through this time of sorrow.I Love all of you very much! If you need anything at all, Please Let us know. We are here for you now and always.
All our Love,
Joe,Abby and Cameron Zirpola
