Joseph C. Salerno Sr.

Here is my toast at my Dad's Life Celebration Luncheon on November 7, 2009.

Dear Barb and Family,
We are sorry for your loss. May your memories of Joe help comfort you.

Dear Barbara and Family,

Michelle,

My prayers are with you and your family during this most difficult time. I know that he will be missed greatly, however he will always be with you.

Joe, I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your father. I have many wonderful memories of him during our Boy Scout camping trips. Ted

Barb,

My deepest sympathy to you and your family for your loss.

Dear Mrs. Salerno, Joe, Tony, and Michelle,
I was saddened and shocked to read that Joe had passed away. May your fond memories and the love of each other sustain you through this very difficult time.
Of course, I had such fond memories of him and your family growing up, and was glad that my husband got to know him though Lombard sports and hanging out at the hot dog cart and chatting with him. He was truly a great man.
All of you are in the thoughts and prayers of myself...

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.
