Words cannot express my sorrow at the death of Vittorio Capparelli, a true Renaissance man who was my good friend for more than 42 years. To Antonietta, Marcello, and Maurizio -- my sincere sympathy. Vittorio will long be remembered by the many people who were privileged to know him.

My wife Elissa and I wish to express our deep condolences to Antonietta and her children. We were always made to feel at home by the Capparelli family. The loss of Vittorio is felt by us and our many friends who we brought to meet and share the wonderful experience of being with such wonderful and loving people.
We wish and pray for Vittorio's Peace. We ask for Healing to those who will miss him.
