Mr. Passanisi,
I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your son. Although I did not know him, I knew you very well when you trained me at Riverside back in 2002 and know what an awesome man you are. You were the best mentor and friend and I was blessed by you and know your son had to have been because you are such a positive influence on everyone's life that you touch. I pray that God will wrap His loving arms of mercy around you and your family during your time of bereavement. God Bless you all.
