My family and I send our deepest regrets to hear of Freddy's passing. It has been a very long time since we left Closter, but our memories of a wonderful town with wodnerful people linger. Freddy was most certainly one of them. He was a good friend to my husband Al. We are so very sorry.

My deepest sympathies to the whole Zampolino family. I have such fond memories of Fred, spending time in the finger lakes and always seeing him and talking to him down at the Taaz. Fred and the whole Zampolino family will always have a special place in my heart.

My deepest sympathies. Freddy was such an important part of my childhood. I literally grew up bowling at Taaz. It was such a great environment there for kids and the Zampolino brothers were always there for us. Freddy always smiled at us, always talked with us, took care of us like we were one of his own. We felt safe, wanted, and cherished. I have so many wonderful memories, even though it was 35 years or so ago. Thank you, Freddy. There's a special place in heaven for people like you.

My thoughts are with you Minnie on the passing of Freddy. He was a good friend to me over the years when I was young. I now live in Las Vegas Nevada but wanted you to know I am thinking of you.
