Not sure what to say?

Art and Family I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your loved one. My deepest Condolences go out to the entire family. May he rest in peace.

Russo family,

My sympathy on your loss. He played many roles in your family and did them all very well.

I recall that EVERY conversation that I ever had with him, the topic was Mickey Mantle. It brought a smile to my face. The world would be a much better place if all of us could make others smile.

So sorry for your loss everyone.

Sir,
I did not know you personally, however I would very much like to "Thank You" for your dedicated and honorable Military Service to OUR country.
As a member of the "GREATEST GENERATION", and as a "WORLD WAR II VETERAN", you Sir, are my HERO!
At a later date we will meet in that "SPECIAL PLACE" which GOD reserves for ALL of those who have stepped forward to serve their country in a Military Uniform.
May ALL of GOD'S blessings be with your Dear Family!

Dear Rosalie, Vera, Art, Joe, MaryAnn, Linda and Chris and your families,

Robbie and I were so sorry to hear of John's passing. What a wonderful and full life he lead and raised a beautiful family.

All of you are in our thoughts and prayers.

With much sympathy and love,

Robbie and Karen DeLuca, Myrtle Beach, SC

Art, Kay, Jeff and Brad,

Our deepest sympathies on the loss of your father and grandfather. Although we did not know him, by seeing what great men you are we know he must have been a tremendous role model and a loving father/grandfather. Know that our prayers are with all of you and his spirit lives on through your memories. God bless.

Art and Family
So very sad to hear of your father's passing. I remember so fondly how he treated me when I arrived in NJ in 1967 and befriended Art. The juke box playing, kids running around and Mr Russo catching 40 winks on the couch before heading out to work. Waking and saying Jodoin, how's that curveball breaking
A good man who raised a wonderful family.
