Dear Irene, Donna, Alan and family, I am so very sorry to hear of your loss. I have never forgotten Mr. Calitri from Clinton St. I will never forget the sound of his VW bug coming up the street everyday while growing up! He was always there for all of us neighborhood kids with a big smile, kind words and assistance with anything we needed. I also remember what a great cook he was and his amazing vegetable garden every summer. I always felt very fortunate when I was invited to have dinner at your house! You are all in my thoughts and I pray that God will give you peace and comfort during this time.
