Tony & I were very sad to hear about your passing. Even though I did not know you well, I sensed you were a kind, caring soul loved by, not only your family, but also those who were blessed to know you. My husband Tony thought the world of you. No doubt you will be missed terribly!

My dad meant the world to me and my entire family. I will always carry him in my heart along with that of my mother every day of my life. Dad, this is your final salute with all my love and admiration concentrating on the good times and laughter our family shared in days gone by. It would not be easy to sum your entire life up in a word or two but certain ones come easy: “loving, proud, faithful, thoughtful, carrying” and the list goes on and on. I love you dearly dad and I am really going to miss you.

Uncle Tony, it gives me some comfort to know that you're with Dad. I know how much you missed him and there is no doubt about how much you meant to him. I'll never forget how you brightened a particularly bad day that Dad was having years ago. His memory was failing and that day seemed to be one of the worst .... until you called him. It was all grins and laughter after that! Look after each other until we meet again, Uncle Tony. With all my love, Jean Marie.

Uncle Tony I was so glad to have seen you and laughed with you about old times. I am so glad you were reunited with your brother, my father. The two of you are priceless. The children in our family were blessed to have you to look up to. All my love, your niece

I will miss you sooo much Daddy. Thank you for coming to live with me. We had so much fun watching shows together, cracking jokes, eating pumpkin pie! You will always be in my Heart and Prayers. I am so proud to have been your daughter. You were the best Dad in the world. My values will never change. Rest in peace. Tell Mom we love her too. Love always, Lynn
