Neil was a wonderful man to have as your friend. He and Carmen knew each other since they were youngsters and remained friends through all the years. Now they are together again.

Dear Mike, Tony, the entire DeStefano family,
So sorry to hear of your dad's passing! I pray the Good Lord gives all of you the grace to help you through this most difficult time. Having played baseball many years ago with you guys and on the team managed by Lou Cassese, I saw, firsthand, how close your family was so I know how trying this time can be and with the Good Lord's blessing, all will be well! Your dad is with Our Savior right now!
God Bless each and every one of you!
Sincerely,
