Scott, Pebbles and the Caruana family,
I worked with your Dad for 15 years at Phoenix and I have so many great memories of him. It has probably been 15+ years since I've seen you kids and your dad, and I'm sure two things have not changed over those years, and that was how much he LOVED you, and how he was always so PROUD of you.
My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. I hope those happy memories stay in your heart and guide you through your years ahead.
