Not sure what to say?

20 minutes a month for 25 years, Sal was practically family. He cut my hair for my prom, my wedding and even cut my kids' hair. The first time my oldest son ever role played, he said you're daddy and I'll be Rizzo - he had me sit in a chair as he pretended to cut my hair.

He always spoke of his girls with such pride and more recently, his grandchildren. He loved them so much.

Imagine a grown man crying in the mall upon hearing the news. You will be missed Sal. Yup, that was me.

Sal was my barber since 1981.
He was not only my barber but also my friend.I will really miss you. RIP

Sal was my father's, mother's and husband's barber for over 25 years.He was one of the nicest people I had ever met. A true gentleman in every sense of the word....We will miss you,Sal.You were part of our family for many years...Rest in peace with all the angels in heaven......

Rizzo cut my husband's hair for as long as I can remember and started to cut my boys' hair about 5 years ago. He was always so kind and patient with them. He talked so much about his grandchildren; our hearts go out to his family. We will miss him.

Rizzo was my barber for 15 yrs. I moved to AC; Id still drive to see sal every three weeks. He Loved his wife, kids and grand kids. Rizzo you'll be missed; you'd always tell me "I've beena cuttina hair since before you were born." He had a passion for his profession and a true service professional. RIP Rizzo

Sal was my barber for 25 years, he also cut my grandfathers,fathers & sons hair as well. Every 2 weeks I would go and see him for a haircut & some wonderful conversation . He was like an extended member of our family. I had a lot of respect for Sal for the way he would speak so highly of his wife, daughters & especially his grand children.R.I.P. Rizzo

Sal was also my barber for many years. He was a great man. Always had great conversations with him. He would never have a conversation without mentioning his grand kids and pointing them out up on his mirror where he had all pictures. He adored them. I love sal and will always remember him. Again to his family you were everything to him. He used to always say I can't wait to go home relax eat dinner with the wife have a little wine. What a great man.

Sal Rizzo was a good friend and a great hairdresser. I worked with him for many years in the SI Mall.When I went back to visit, he was always happy to see me and told me all the new happenings with the family. He always made me laugh and we talked all the time about food and cooking sauce. My prayers go out to his family. Rip Riz....

"Rizzo" as he was affectionately called was part of my family for 30 years. He was a kind man always accommodating and someone you could talk too. R.I.P. Rizzo you were loved and you will be missed. Mark M.and family.
