Not sure what to say?

Denise and Tim, we are sorry that we could not give you our regrets in person due to a death in our Cooney family, John´s brother in law. I was able to attend the beautiful funeral though and was so impressed at the tribute to dearest Jules. We loved both Theresa and Jules over these many years since we joined OLA. We will always treasure their friendship. God grant you His peace.

My deepest condolences, Mrs. Salerni was my teacher and I´ll never forget her and never forget her husband who used to come into class and bring his wife flowers or just to give her a kiss. Will never forget either of them.

Mr. and Mrs. Salerni were pillars of Our Lady of Angels parish as well as of the entire West Park community for as long as I can remember. I believe that each of the Lanning children was the beneficiary of Mrs. Salerni's wonderful talents as a teacher. There was never an event at that parish held that Mr. Salerni wasn't working on - front and center, doing whatever needed to be done and always so willingly and cheerfully. They were both such salt of the earth folks who helped so many of...

Denise and family: Jules was always so kind, so friendly and so supportive of my mom, Carol Baugh, and of our whole family. He and your mom warmly welcomed my parents at OLA and he welcomed my mom to Ennis Court with an open heart and great joy. I'll never forget the smiles on their faces when they realized they would be Ennis Court neighbors. Our visits with your dad were always highlights of my week. Your dad was a true gentleman and he will be so greatly missed by all. Sending you deepest...

From the moment Jules and I met, I liked him immediately. After he moved into the Assisted Living facility at EnnisCourt, I joked that he was coming "down" to the therapy on the first floor, so I applied Paul Simon's song to him, "Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard" and a nickname was born. Jules, words cannot describe the grief we are experiencing mourning the loss of your presence among us. But we thank you for your time with us and consider ourselves lucky to have known you. God bless...

Denise and family, We just lost another one of the Greatest Generation. Your Dad was one of a kind. From yelling his heart out at your sporting events to being so gentle while caring for your Mom I was always in awe of him of him. I know there is a great welcome party going on in heaven right now. Sending prayers your way during this difficult time. Rest in peace Mr. Salerni your work here is done
