Dear Barbara, So very sorry for your loss. Steve was always my hero from the time I was 5 years old! My crush and the last attachment to my Hamlin Avenue Memories. He's with all the guys now and I know bgg they're welcoming him with open arms. Karen Cascio Bulski Tony Ricotta's niece.

Our sincerest condolences to the Cannistra family. As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends. Rest in Peace Steve. You will be dearly missed by your family and friends.

Mary Kay is a great friend I graduated with from St. Emily's. Steve Jr. is a friend I was also very fond of as we grew older. Mr. and Mrs. Cannistra are two people that couldn't be closer to me in memory than my own family. They were two of the most supporting and loving people in my life. Unfortunately time and life distanced us from more years spent together. I will always remember their friendship and know that I am a better person from having that friendship. God bless Mr. Cannistra, Mrs....

So sorry to hear about your dad My deepest sympathy
