Dear Susan and Laurie,



Our deepest sympathy to your family on the loss of your Dad. He was a wonderful, devoted and caring man who loved his family dearly. It showed by the way he took care of your Mom, which could not have been easy. I have very fond memories of Uncle Dave taking me out on his much cherished boat. I know he will truly be missed by all. May God give you the strength to get through this very difficult time. God Bless you all.



Fondly,

Tracy & Dennis Alterio & Family



PS~He's up there with my Dad and I know Dad's taking good care of him!
