I met Mr. Marazzo years ago with my friend Butch ( Edmund ) T. , I always remembered how nice of a person he was, always smiling. I use to drive from Buffalo to Niagara Falls Pine Ave store just to say hi and do some shopping. He was a true professional, A person who cared about his customers. His Son Chuck is the same way, I can see why Latina Foods is the best wholesale food distributor in NYS, May Mr. Marazzo rest in peace for I know God will watch over him always. Respectfully
