Sam was a close friend of my father, Steve Tucciarelli. Sam and Lu and my parents were friends for years. I visited Sam many times in New Port Richey but lost contact with him about 5 years ago. He was a good man and a great friend to my father. Case Tucciarelli.

A name is better than gold they say. May the Termini carry on the legacies, love and knowledge Mr. Termini possessed. May God strengthen the family during this sad time.

Well done, good and faithful servant!

One of the highlights of my work day was spending time with Santo.

We shared memories of our mutual Italian heritage as he shared the same first name with my uncle and the same nickname as my paternal grandfather who was also from Chicago.

I could always engage Santo with with music, our Catholic faith while together we sang, laughed and had good communication.

He had a great sense of humor... what we call the 'Chicago style' of wise cracks and laughs.

As I earned his trust, he'd just look at me and I knew he had a question.

It was heartwarming to witness the faithfulness of his sister who never failed to visit, making sure he had what he needed and to spend quality time with him... even when you were acting 'brotherly' with her!

It was an honor serving Santo with all the dignity, honor and respect he deserved as a veteran, a man and a human being.

I'll never forget the joy he brought me personally when he sang and hummed praise and worship songs each week and the laughs we ALL had when I played Dean Martin's 'Standing on the Corner.'

In closing I beg our dearest Lord, that our beloved Santo be now resting in Your merciful and loving arms as you lead him into the mansion you've prepared for those who loved you.

Prayers always for you and all your loved ones here who are missing you but will surely see you again some day, for all eternity.

Until then my friend...

Diane
