My thoughts and prayers are with the entire Pallotta Family. I played basketball and volleyball with Christine. Mr. & Mrs. Pallotta were fixtures at the games. It was so nice to see the support they had for thier family. Carla was my hair stylist for years. I know it is never the same after losing your Dad. God Bless all of you.

Jimmy was my friend, so many hours we spent reminiscing about his years at Polaroid, in his brother Mario's office. His life's journey was extraordinary. I will miss him, as we all will. Ciao.
