So very thankful for Mr. Caruso's long life and for the special memories of trips to his Catania Bakery with my father. We would leave with huge bags filled with loaves of his freshly baked bread for our family of 11.
Now heaven will be blessed with his bread instead of us.
Condolences to his family,
Tony & Mary Jo Consoli

Louis, we will miss your visits to the bakery more than you know. You are the foundation and rock that will help us carry on with Catania as long as we're around
