Nicholas AQUILANO

To Nina and all the family,
I'm so sorry for your loss and can only imagine how much you will miss Nick. My most outstanding memory of him was when he was in our wedding party at St. Francis de Sales church in Geneva in August, 1956. Needless to say, he was handsome (almost as handsome as my husband, Tony, who was one of his numerous cousins)! Please accept my sincere condolences.

The obituary your children wrote was great.i remember stopping at your house around 1993,it was a nice visit,so sorry for the loss of your husband,and father,Rosemarie Thorne.

what a beautiful obituary, such a tribute to a great man and our heritage; told like it was. Cousin Janice DiDuro

Your Dad was my professor and advisor at UofA where I majored in Operations Management. I followed my major and retired as Global Supply Chain Director for Northrop Grumman. Your Dad took a young, lost kid and guided me to successfully graduating. I'm not sure I knew he worked for GE in Pittsfield. My Dad did too so it was where I was born. I will be posting his passing in LinkedIn because everybody read his Operations Management book, and were wiser for it. Thank you for sharing his life...

Nick was a great guy. He was fun and loving and we enjoyed having Thanksgiving dinner with him and his family. He loved Diane's lasagna which is funny since she is not Italian. We also liked having dinner with him and friends on Friday night at Golden corral, we would set and talk for hours. We will mess him dearly.
Don and Diane Parscale

Sincere sympathies to the Aquilano family.
Nina, I do remember you sharing family stories when we worked together at Marshall. His legacy will certainly sustain all of you during this difficult time.
Sincerely, Lori Taniguchi

I had the honor of being Nick's friend, colleague and coauthor of his operations management book. He was a very nice person as well as being very smart. We were in graduate school together at UCLA and Nick helped me get a job at U of A when I was desperate to leave the cold winters of central Pennsylvania. We had great times with him and his family in Arizona and I am very sad that he is no longer with us. My deepest condolences to Nina, Kara, Don, and Mark.

This is one of the most lovely tributes I've ever read. Mr. Aquilano left an amazing legacy & it's to his credit to have such love & respect coming from his family. May God bless you ...& may perpetual light shine upon him.

Sorry for your lost. But, You all were lucky to have him in your life. God bless, and RIP. Respectfully yours, Anthony Porta
