To all of my wonderful DeLuca family I cannot believe that over a month has passed since Big D has left usI just lost 2 more dear friends in 1 week, so I want to take this time to let you know how sorry I was that I could not be there for you, Vinny you know why but also to know how my heart was with you then and now. You know you are all like family to us, and we love you all dearly. We must take time out of our busy lives to reach out and let others know that we love and care for them and...

Tan Lines and Form N Image will not be the same without Big D. To know him was to love him. There will be Big D stories to keep his memories alive and us smiling for years to come because that is how he would want it. Thank you to all of you for allowing me to be a part of your family. I'll miss you Big D.

To the DeLuca family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.
Sincerely,

As I read this today with tears in my eyes for a man that was very friendly and most of all a great father to all of his son. I am so sorry to all of his son and the entire family. May God bless everyone.

We are so sorry for your loss. He was a great man. Dave will miss his Sunday talks with him at Tan Lines before Raiders footabll.
He will always be in our hearts.
Lisa, Dave and Stephen

Nick, Vinny, Luke and families;
We're so sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. It's obvious from the wonderful memorial tribute in The Courant that he touched many people in his life in a special way. I know that my Dad and my Uncle Jimmy thought of him like a son. I hope you can find some comfort in knowing that they are together again watching a ballgame, talking and laughing over a beer somewhere....
Please accept our most sincere condolences and know that you are all in our thoughts...

Jimmy
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time.
