We are all better humans because Ponzi was in our lives. No one could ask for a better Friend, Neighbor, Husband, Father, Brother-in-law, Grampa, Uncle (my kids will carry on his wish to take over the world, Muahhhhaha). Everything was always more fun because Ponz was there with laughter & stories to tell! We will miss his spirit, but all will look forward to riding (motorcycle or boat) with him again in heaven! Until then, we will always think of you with fondness & love, Ponzi. A better person is hard to find.

It was so fantastic to catch up you about a year ago, to meet your wife, check out your garden and talk about the days growing up on fifth street. I can still picture you riding your loud chopper up the block and playing stickball. I know your loving family and friends are missing you deeply. I am very sad to hear about your passing. I am sure God has reserved a special place for you and your bike. :)
