In loving memory of my wonderful Dad. I love you and miss you always. There has not been one day in the past 10 years where I haven't thought about you, wished you were here, wanted to talk to you. When I close my eyes I can still hear your voice. You were the glue that held our family together. I try to focus on the happy memories, they make me smile, but life is not the same without you. There is an indescribable void in my heart that hasn't gone away.

I am greatly saddened this evening to have learned of the loss of Giulio Stecich. I have known Giulio for most of my life, and he was very special. Giulio was greatly devoted to his wife and daughters, and he was always very kind and supportive to everyone he ever met. He knew God's love from the very beginning and shared in it with everyone whom he encountered.

Our hearts and prayers are especially with Ana, Gilda, Kelley, and Mandy during this difficult time.

Thank you to everyone that has showed my family so much generosity, love and support. I am grateful that my dad left such a strong impression on so many people; that throughout his life he was able to touch many hearts and help many family members, friends and even strangers. He always gave from his heart, and when he didn't have money he would find some other way to show support.

He taught me to root for the underdog, make friends with someone that seemed to have none, and most of all, he taught me the value of being an honest person; one that can earn someones trust and keep it by always honoring my word.

"This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it."

-Psalm 118:24

Sincerely,
Kelley (Stecich) Spiezio
