My deepest sympathies to the entire Sanfilippo family. My Mom and Dad (Audrey and Christ Schmidt, who are both deceased)knew Peter and Mary for many, many years. My dad worked with Peter at the Phone Company back when it was Wisconsin Bell. Please know that all of you are in my thoughts and prayers every day.

Dear Joe and Peter,

I am sorry for your loss.

Your father was a great husband and a great father !!

He also had the best dry sense of humor I've ever heard.
Although, you are both a close second !!

"Sorrow is temporary but memories are forever"

Respectfully,
Sal Collura
