Dear Ciaramitaro Famiy,
Your father was such a blessing to so many. We will miss his laughter and hearing him speak in Italian when he was really passionate about something. We feel so fortunate to have known him and loved him.
Love to all.

Mike always had a smile on his face. He sure loved to eat the snails (scungelies) I would give him every once in a while. I was sadened to hear about the passing of Mike, but will always remember his swagger along the docks near the market. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
-Love Neil and Laurie Guglielmo
