Dad, I never thought I would have to say goodbye this soon. I love you so,so very much and I will miss you every day for the rest of my life. You were not only the best father to me but the best Puppie to Nicky and Jake and they will miss you tremendously. I am so happy that you are in heaven with your mother and your family. Someday we will be together again but until then you will always be in my heart and there will never be a day that goes by that I don't miss my daddy. I will love you always and I will never forget the 39 years of love and kindness that you have shown me. You are the best. Dad I Love you.

Dear Mary, Donna, Joey, Debbie, Jimmy, AnnMarie and Joanne.

There aren't words to express my heartfelt sympathy. Joe was a great next door neighbor for more than 40 years. He had the best decorated house at Christmas. What a lot of work (and love) he put into that. I enjoyed our conversations over the years and will miss him. He is at peace now, watching over you with his love.

Puppie,

I miss all those times you came downstairs knocking on our door to sit and watch the Red Sox games with me. I enjoyed your company very much and I'm also happy that you were able to see the Red Sox win a World Series. Say hello to my Dad for me and let him know that we miss him very much, too. Rest in Peace, Puppie. We love you very much. Love, Anthony
