My condolences to the Campanelli Family. My brothers, sister and I grew up in Brookfield Heights in the late 50's. My parents were so thankful to have a beautiful new home of their own, lots of land and a great place to grow up. Many fond memories we all have of living in Brookfield Hgts. Thank you for making my parents dream come true.God bless.

Carmelina:
I know that you and your dad had a very special relationship and I'm hopeful that somehow those memories will help ease the pain.

With prayers and sympathy he will always be in my heart as a kind and gentle man who was always giving to others and of himself. He will always be remembered as a great friend.

As the days of our youth become fond memories I recall Joe, Clara, Miami Beach and The Seasons. Joe had a great life and may he enjoy the rewards in the hereafter

Ah, yes, the Campanelli name brings back recollections of The Seasons hotel in Fort Lauderdale. Alas, an era gone with the ocean breezes, but still to be treasured by those who remember. Condolences to Mr. Campanelli's family.
