I know this is VERY late, but I just wanted the Carlini family to know how sorry we were to hear about Don or 'Veets' (sp?) as my Dad so fondly called him. I know how much my Dad valued he and Don's friendship and especially the bond they had created though SJU. From the few times I was around Don- mainly on the SJU campus, I could see that he had a way of making those around him truely feel important and special. He will be greatly missed! Our thoughts and prayers are will you still.

Our hearts go out to the Carlini family we will always remember Don as a very fun loving soft spoken generous family man. He will me missed greatly by all.
God bless

Carlini Family,

I was so sorry to hear of your loss. My thoughts are with you at this time of sorrow.

To Mrs. Don Carlini & Family, So sorry to hear about the loss of Don. My staff at Examone in Oakbrook Terrace, ILL. are very sad today. I have done Business with Don's Insurance Agency for many years examining his clients. He was a great man and Ins Agent- We will all miss him. Thank You Louise Picardi- OPERATIONS MANAGER-EXAMONE

To Anthony, Leah, Mrs. Carlini and all the extended Carlini family, speaking on behalf of the entire Fernandez family, we send our deepest heartfelt condolences on your loss. Previous work commitments prevented me from attending the services and for that I deeply apologize. I feel honored to have known Mr. Carlini through Anthony, Leah, and as my basketball coach at Our Lady of Mt. Carmel grade school. Not only was he an excellent coach, he was an even better role model who epitomized class,...

We are shocked to learn of Don's passing and feel saddened for all those closest to him. Like so many have said Don was so warm and friendly, kind and gentle and a very proud father and grandfather. He was also the best insurance agent we will ever know. He will be missed by many for a long time.

Those of us who shared some very memorable days at Mt. Carmel School, remember Donnie's wonderful smile and spirit. As adults, we appreciated his kind heart and that wonderful smile, always. I so wanted to be there this week, but the weather made flying from the New Orleans area too great of a challenge. May the Lord bring His peace to all of the family and friends of Don.

To Barb, Anthony, Leah and all the extended Carlini family, My deepest and heartfelt sympathy on this great loss. I was very saddened and shocked to hear of Don's passing away. Our families have been friends for as many years as I can remember so he truly will be missed. My late husband Vince was especially fond of Don. They shared many good times while working together years ago. My children and I will always remember him. So many of us have fond memories of him to hold on to.
