ANGELO A. LUCCHESI

My sincere condolences to Angelo's family. When I met him (in 2004), I had to do a double take as at first I thought it was my dad. They were the same age and about the same size and both had lost their right hands. It was like having Dad there until I moved back to Iowa in 2007 to care for him. So for those few years he was my "Angel" and has now hopefully met my dad in heaven. He was truly a humble soul.

Angela, Anthony, Tish, & Denise: Our sincere sympathy in the passing of your father to eternal life. We're sure that this leaves a big gap in your lives, but, it sounds like he was ready. He is with your mom now. God Bless them both. He was a dear friend even though we were separated by miles. Lots of fond memories of Scenic Hills, Raleigh-Bartlett, and St. Ann's and your family. One of the best was our joint family vacation to Nashville and down to Lynchburg to visit the Jack Daniels...

Our deepest sympathy on the loss of such a wonderful, kind and funny human being. ..we had the pleasure and honor of knowing him when he spent time here in our Desert while attending the Sinatra golf tournament. ..RIP

Angelo your smiling face with be missed.
Thanks for all your help and advice to all you meet.

Dearest Lucchesi Family,
I want ot express my warmest thoughts at this time for all of you. Angelo and I would talk of some "old times" in the liquor business as my father, Bill Miner and my grandfather, Adelino Bertasi as well as my uncles, Tony Bertasi and Leno Bertasi, all had some memorable times together in the business. He was a warm, loving and fun person and I enjoyed his friendship and fellowhip at St. Louis Church together. I know there are many "Salute"s going on in heaven...

Our thought and prayers are with you all.

It is harder for a rich man to get to heaven than for a camel through the eye of a needle. Mr. Lucchesi is one of a few who got the camel through the eye of the needle. Rest in loving peace.
