Prayers and thoughts for the Scelsi family

Dear Diane, Andy & Tony,

I am sad to learn of your father's passing.
I have such good memories of him, especially visiting him at the store. He was such a warm and kind person.
Thinking of you and your families

I can't begin to imagine what you are feeling. I send my heart-felt condolence
Today and always, may loving memories bring you peace, comfort, and strength

Andy was my 6th grade teacher in 1955 at Crane School ,and all the kids liked him .He made sure we got to go on field trips which were a real treat. My dad , Dan Healy , also worked part time at Besse Clarks , was mgr of some of the teams Andy played on , and really liked Andy . He will be missed , and lived an exemplary life .

Mr. Scelsi was one of my teachers at Crane School in the early sixties.
I remember him being a very positive and upbeat person. He certainly set a good example for our young minds.
My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

Andy and Family,

So very sorry to read of the passing of your father. This is never an easy time and we hope you will find comfort in your memories and knowing that others share in your sorrow.
Keeping you in our thoughts.

With Sincere Sympathy,

My condolences to the Scelsci family. For many years in the 50's and 60's I played baseball with and against Andy at Clapp Park. We, in Southern Berkshire, played more games against the Aces. I also enjoyed buying my clothes at Besse Clarke knowing I could expecr such expert and professional service from Andy. He was a real gentleman and will leave a void behind him.

Andy and Mitzi were wonderful neighbors spanning a period of over fifty years .
Andy always enjoyed taking a minute when walking by or working in the yard to stop and update the latest activities of our families and friends . He loved the opportunity to enjoy a congenial political discussion .
A life well lived , he will be missed .
