I had no idea Chuck had passed away.
We attended Plainville High School together for a time.
We were both musicians and had a lot in common.
I had been thinking a lot about him lately and decided to look him up online.
I'm sorry I didn't get to talk to him again after so many years.
This year is our 40th class reunion. I was hoping to see him there.
Please accept my condolences.

Dear Scalora Family,

I knew Paul for a short time during his stay at Hughes Health. The moment I met him I was drawn to his gentle spirit and wonderful sense of humor. Even during his health struggles he never lost his zest for life and always brightened the day of everyone he encountered. Paul was definitely one of a kind and very few individuals can walk through life and have such a positive impact. He will always be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with your family at this difficult time.

To the Scalora Family I meet Paul at Hughes Home in W Hartfort where he was a roommate of my father John Colvin, who passed away on7/12/2008. The second time I meet Paul we ate watermellon together, from then on we exchange food, Paul loved to eat different type of food, whether he went out to eat or ordered in, for someone I only new a little while he will always be in my heart as a friend. Again I'am deeply sadden for this lost.

Dear Scalora Family,
My deepest, heartfelt sympathy to you all. My prayers and thoughts are with you in this sad time.
Although I haven't seen Chuck for several years, I have many fond memories of working with him at Ristorante Italia. Because of who Chuck was, he certainly left his mark on this earth and the sorrow is that he went to Heaven all too soon.
In your sorrow, may there be peace.
God bless!
