Mrs. Tzetzo, Alexandra, Tom, Steve & Chris,

As I write this my thoughts go to some childhood memories. It is great to be able to reflect and remember the people who were always real and true. Your husband and father is one of those people. He loved his family, his faith, his friends, his community and his business. He proved it often and is missed. We know his example lives in all of us. He was an unfailing friend to my father and for that I am always grateful. I have peace knowing they are together again. Mr. Tzetzo, Thanks again for the hockey tickets! “One life, lived well,” certainly applies. May His Memory Be Eternal.

Dear Tzetzo family,
I was shocked and saddened when,upon Googling your family name came to see Perry's passing.
He was always joyous and kind, the "salt of the earth" type of man who inspired others to be as good as they may be.He was a favorite of my mother,Alice Nichio Manday.....both could be rascals and enjoyed the ability to do so.
The last time, for us, to have been with the whole family was Alexandras'wedding in Buffalo.Everyone was wonderful and it felt terrific to be part of the Tzetzo Clan for time we were there.Perry was a grand man who did things in a grand manner,who also had the heart to be tender and aware of all who were in his heart.That is a rare combination........but that was your husband, and father,Perry.
Please touch base with me whenever you can and if there's anything I can do for you don't hesitate to ask.
My prayers are with and for you all.
Leslie Manday...West Hollywood ,Fl.

Dear Martha and entire family,
My thoughts are with you during this difficult time…
I have fond memories of Perry as a loving and generous man, who had a commanding presence that filled a room with joy and laughter. He was interested in everyone - and had a wealth of knowledge to share that could be both interesting and humorous. I feel lucky to have shared special times with him….

Dear Martha and family,
May I offer my sincerest condolences on your irreplacable loss. Perry was a major influence on my business life and a role model for many in the candy and tobacco field. He was a giant in the industry and one to be emulated. He is sorely missed.

Dear Mrs. Tzetzo, Alexandra and family,
I am so sorry to "see" of Mr. Tzetzo's passing. May I offer from my heart my love and sincerest condolences to your family.

Alexandra, Ironically, I too, am in this guest book looking and viewing "my" father's notice and guest book.
Dad went to the Lord on April 22nd, his name was John Weislo.
Our services are a bit later as my oldest son lives in Hawaii and came home to help with things.
Being and only child is sometimes difficult. I am sure you know how blessed you are to have such a wonderful & beautiful large family. Hug Mrs. Tzetzo for me and hugs to you.

Both of our Dads lived long and wonderful lives. This is a great thing!

You are all in my prayers and thoughts.

Blessings,
Marcy Wood
