Gary, Steph, Jim...
I am so sorry to hear about your Dad.
I have such fond memories of Dad walking down the driveway on Burns greeting the dogs with the biggest smile on his face and always a kind word to "the neighbors". It saddens all of us that he is no longer here on this earth but has left a legacy that will carry on within the hearts of many. Gary, you have always shown great honor, respect and love for your Dad, you were always so proud of him. Celebrate his life and all he shared with others.
Take care my friend.
Much love, The Luciano Girls - Karen, Nicole, Erica & Marina.

Funerals are hard to take. Birthdays and anniversaries are easier. But they all should bring a family together. Thoughts of your Dad will bring all of us memories and that will keep him alive.
Love, Aunt Marilyn

Gary,
My most heartfelt condolences go out to you, Steph, and the rest of your family. What your dad meant and continues to mean to you is clear: his influence, his contributions, his guidance in your life will continue to be embraced as you travel through your life. I know you will "pay it forward" and bring those lessons into the lives of others. May you know peace and healing in these coming weeks, which will turn to months, and then years. Know that as the pain subsides, the memory will grow ever stronger. Much love to you.
