Not sure what to say?

I have so many happy memories from my childhood that Benny and Shirley
and the family are so much a part of. I loved growing up watching the the special friendships that our families had and remember all the fun times sharing all the holidays from the fourth of july picnics to Xmas Eve and New Years
parties they all shared for soooooooo many years!Benny will always have a special place in my heart! He will be sadly missed.

Aunt Shirley, Tracy, Brothers and sisters and grandkids.

I'll miss walking the boardwalk and watching Aunt Shirley manipulate a couple of bucks out of him for the slots.
You had him wraped around your finger (even if he didn't admit it). I'll miss him calling me Dan. (never resenting the comparason).
I'll never have sausage soup the same way.
Aunt Sirley you provided him good care and lots of love....A greater being knows that.
Gloria and I will miss...

Hello, to the De Santis Family,
I have many happy memories of the De Santis Family. Mrs. de Dansits and our mother, Mrs. Anne Wyand were friends for many years. I remember that Benny came to our mother's wake several years ago, and we talked about the "old days". We seem to do that a lot now.
i remember Mary and Lucy, too, and I send my condolences and love to you all.
