I just found out today about Claud. I would have been there, just like I was for Pa back in '09. RIP Claud, I always thought of him as the big brother I never had. He always treated me & my little brothers like family.

Not everyone finds that perfect Soul Mate and you did.
I am sending you and your family Much Love, Healing, and Light.

Dear Janine and the Cozzini Brothers
The news of Claudio's passing was a shock and a wake up call for myself. I have been a close business associate of Claudio for over 17 years. Although we saw each other rarely, we spoke often. I enjoyed his stories of his travels to Italy and how much he enjoyed that. We were making plans to attend the Chicago Auto Show in February. My heart goes out to all of you.
I will miss his friendship and keep him in my prayers. Rest in peace Claudio.

Dear Cozzini family,

My deepest sympathies for the loss of Claudio. Growing up in the business together we shared many good times together. Our relationship began as a work associates, but evolved into a great friendship.

May God grant your family the strength to turn this tragic loss into fond memories of one of the most charismatic people I ever knew. His smile was contagious and his personality was truly genuine .

He will be missed by us all but he will never be forgotten. May his memory be eternal and may God rest his soul!
