Dear Donna and family,

I put an entry in the guest book on March 1 when I first heard about Junior's death. I just wanted you to know that my husband and I still talk about Junior and the "good old days" growing up on Fairhill Street in South Philly. We also wanted you to know that you and your family continue to be in our thoughts and prayers. Take care.

Dear Donna and family,
I grew up on Fairhill Street in South Philly and Junior was part of the crowd we "hung out" with. I just heard about his death today and I wanted to convey my deepest sympathy to you and your family. I don't know if your father-in-law, Tony, would remember me but if you would convey my sympathy to him I would appreciate it. We lived at 1309 S. Fairhill St. and Junior lived at 1314. You are all in my prayers.
Mary Ann Di Cesare (nee Carine)

Dear Donna, Renee, Danielle, and Carmen, I am so sorry to hear this news. I wish I could be there with you during your time of sorrow. Please feel free to contact me if there is anything I can do. I will keep you all in my prayers.

Cousin Anthony, Donna and children, We are so sorry for your loss. Junior always had smile on his face. I can remember the days growing up on Fairhill and Reese st. as if it was yesterday. Whenever Junior and the other kids from the neighborhood were playing ball or anything else, I would always be the one that would either take whatever they were playing with and run away or stand in the middle of the street and disrupt the game. He will be sorely missed and I am just sorry that we didn't see much of each other as we got older.
Cousin Mario, Mary Ann Marchetti and family

Junior, I'm going to miss all of your jokes...you know, the ones I could never react quick enough to. You were the only one who could do that to me....leave me speechless and sometimes clueless. Will definitely miss you. Be good up there!

I worked with Tony at the Naval Surface Warfare Center. He always had a smile and kind or humorous word. He always made you feel at ease even when you were the object of the humor. He was a good man and I'll miss him.

I used to work with Tony and I will always remember how he could lighten up your day by just the smile on his face. No matter what kind of day he was having, he always was able to see on the bright side of things. He will surely be missed.

Junior, I know that where you are now you are the life of the party just as you were when you were with us! We will miss you! Love, McKoskey family
