Sorry I won't be able to attend the funeral. Your dad was a great man. He had a wonderful sense of humor. Heaven will shine a bit brighter now that he is there.

Dearest Vince and Caroline and family,
I am so very sorry for the loss of your dad. Although I only met your dad and mom once, it was so evident the love they shared for each other and for all of their family. They are now together for eternity. I hope you find some peace in that. God bless all of you at this sad time. Much love to all of you.

On November 12, 2015 the baby Angels got the greatest MOM MOM in the world and now just 104 days later they have the greatest POP POP in the world. Dad I will miss you forever but I know you are happy now with Mom and these past 104 days were your greatest struggle but you fought for us eventhough you had a broken heart. Thank you for raising me to be the man I am today and please take good care of Mom!! I know you will always be looking down on us.
I LOVE YOU

While I only knew him a short while, it was clearly evident Mr. Risi was a man of character who truly loved his family. His children and their bond are a testament to his faith, his kindness, his committment and the eternal love he and Mrs. Risi shared. My continued thoughts and prayers are with you.
