Not sure what to say?

Remembering you and your family Dina on this day. Life is never complete with the loss of a love one that is not physically with the family anymore. Remembering you and your beautiful Dad on our Rosary line this day.

I remember when Paul was brought into our Washington Jr. High classroom.He was introduced to the class as just having arrived from Italy. He spoke very little English. His parents made his sit in the classes though he knew little English. He learned our language very fast and became an honored member of our Social group.

Dear Joe, Paul Jr., Lisa, Dina and Michael,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your families. Your father is the security you will always remember and the caring love and friendship you will always treasure. May the life he lived give you the memories too beautiful to forget. Now you have two angels looking after you. I (Kathy) will always cherish the invitation your father and mother extended to me to join your family on the trip to Montreal in '67. It was great fun. I will...

Joe,
So sorry to hear of your Dads passing. My most vivid memory of your dad was seeing him walk out of your house on Voorhies with a pistol in his belt and a rose for your mom. Any coolness you have was inherited from him!

Wish we were there for you.

Dear Bob, and Lisa Larson;
May you and your families find peace, and comfort through each others love, and the Love of our Lord!

We were so sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts of many are with you at this time of sorrow.

Dear Joe, Paul Jr., Lisa, Dina and Michael,
Our deepest sympathy to all of you on the loss of your father. He will be greatly missed by all. We have such fond memories of the many times our families were able to spend together. Those memories will help to dull the pain of this great loss in our family. I'm sure both he and Uncle Mike are making their presence felt already in heaven. Our thoughts and prayers are with your entire family during this time of sadness. May God comfort...

Dear Dina & Family,
We are very sorry for your loss. Please accept our condolences. We regret, we will not be able to visit the Funeral Home. You and your family are in our prayers.
In Christ Peace,
Lou & Mary Ruth Pierce (Reese, Mi)

I remember the day at Washington Jr. High School, Pontiac, that this boy was brought in and introduced to the class. His name was Paul Spadafore. He did not know very much English but apparently his father insisted that he attend the classes and sit there, even if he did not understand much of what was going on. He learned English very fast. Later, WWII, I went into the Army Air Corps and never knew him again. I am glad to read of his successful and happy life. George Luenberger
