Not sure what to say?





Dino and Marie were two of the best friends that my wife and I ever had. We participated in many activities with them including golf, bowling, bridge and other social activities. We consulted Dino and Marie frequently for advice on a wide variety of issues and they always helped us. They will be missed and we will always have the greatest for their friendship.

Dino & Bonnie,
So sorry for your loss. Your Dad was the manager at Kentwood for only a short time but enjoyed working for him. May your wonderful memories of him bring you peace at this time.

I had the extreme pleasure of growing up with the Pezzato's! What an outstanding family. What fun we had on Brooklyn Avenue. Their house became my second home. Mr. & Mrs. Pezzato made this possible, they were always so kind to me...plus they provided the very best games and toys around, and a pool! I loved spending time at their house. I can still see Mr. Pezzato sitting on the back patio with a cigar and listening to the Tigers. He, and his booming voice, will be missed. My thoughts, prayers, and love go out to you all. Ty

Deepest condolences to the family. He was a very nice man. I worked at the Wyoming Kmart when he was manager there. He was fun to work for and with. And I remember the pot lucks he loved to put on. He tried to make things fun and still be work.

My sincere sympathy to the family of Dino Sr. What a wonderful and fun loving man. I had the pleasure of his support and guidance as our store manager at the K Mart in Wyoming when I worked there. I can remember what a great guy he was, both fun loving and respectful. I fondly remember the awesome potlucks we had around Christmas time and his famous "Italian kielbasa"! He was fair, fun and a great leader. God rest his soul.
