Hank was one of the kindest people I know. I am sorry I was not around to be more supportive in his final days. He was absolutely in love with his children and grand children and even treated me as one of his own. I was his computer guy years ago and he introduced me to the world of insurance where he proudly served hundreds of families and was a top producer. Love you buddy.

Mr. Berardi was a wonderfully warm and kind man. I always enjoyed talking to him and hearing his stories. He loved his children and grandchildren, and he once told me that my friendship with Nicole made him consider me almost a second father for her. He could not have given me a greater compliment. I will miss his smile, his laugh and his love of life.
