Not sure what to say?

Sasha Torre Tasso was a most unique man whose willingness to undertake any adventure, be it going over the reversing falls of the Sheepscot river in search of striped bass or crashing thru a tangle of underbrush for ducks, woodcocks and pheasants.
Supervising my children when they worked for him instilled in them good manners, work ethic and most importantly a sense of humor. He created many happy childhood memories for them.
It was because of Sasha's friendship that I met so many...

Dear Connie,
I will never forget the wonderful years you and Sasha gave to Allie and all of those young girls as they fell in love with horses at your barn. Little did you know the gift, you gave the parents as well. I shall always count the days at your home and barn as some of the fondest memories I have. Sasha was such a gentle soul and you a classy lady. I feel privileged to have crossed paths with you both. I will always picture Sasha puttering around the beautiful grounds of...

To dear Connie,

I am most grateful for having known Sasha as a teenager and as a young man during a dozen consecutive summers in East Pittston, Maine.

The wonderful Buckley family invited me as their daughter, Patty, and I were the best of friends. The Torre Tasso's were our next door neighbors.

Dear Connie and family

For most of our lives, Sahsa was part of our lives, from being a great friend to being our "Best Man' at our wedding to being Godfather to our son, Peter. Sasha was part of our family and we will always treasure our many...

Dear Connie

From the softball games as teenagers in East Pittston, Maine, to the duck blinds every frosty October morning in Maine, the one person in my life to give inspiration to anyone was Sasha. He was a prince of kindness and unselfishness. Always sacrificing himself and his desires to make others around him comfortable and happy. A friend to everyone whomever would receive his friendship. For those who would choose not to re-establish themselves with his warmth, kindness and...

Connie we were saddened to learn of Sasha"s passing. You are in our prayers.

Dear Connie, so sorry - he was a wonderful personality and I am glad to have had the opportunity to have met him.

My wife Mary Anne and I would like to express our deepest sympathy to Connie, Alex, Louise and family. Sasha will always occupy a special place in our memories and in our hearts. My relationship with him was a lifetime of incomparable activities, effervescent comaraderie and very close friendship.

He was a raconteur extraordinaire whose spontaneous charm, generosity of spirit and contagious humor would light up a room. He accomplished things on a grand scale and a small scale...
