Dear Chuckles & to all of the Pegnato Family:

I was stunned to hear of the news of my Grumpy. I can still hear him yelling at me over the orders. His afternoon tea requirement, and of course, the ever famous, 'When I was at Kinnealy's' stories.

His personality, his devotion to his family, and his drive in life, will not soon be forgotten by ANYONE that knew him.

My Love & Sympathies to all of you.

XOXOX

Dearest Uncle Joey,
It's a wonderful tribute to a life when all one remembers are fun, laughter, caring, understanding and love. That's what you gave us all from my first memories as a small child to the last time I talked to you. You are sorely missed. Rest in peace wonderful man.
Love you always,
Rita

Uncle Joe, I miss you already, I will always remember when you first built the house in Saugus, you were the first person I knew who had a fireplace, you use to put the colors in it, and we would sit and watch, and watch, and be happy, like families should be, and ours was. I love and miss you.

Uncle Joe, I will always cherish memories of your meat market, and when you closed it how my mother would look at meat counters in the supermarkets and walk away because their meats were not as good as yours. Also, I will never forget all the family cookouts you had and members of the Celtics stopping by. God Bless. Your nephew, Fred.
