To the Fusco Famiy
I just wanted to let you know how special your Dad was to me... I know your not supposed to have favorites when working in the caregiving buisness but your father was mine... We had silly pet names for each other... He was my George and I was his Margret. He certainly knew how to make people smile and I will cherish my memories of him.... He got me through many hard days at the Pines... Take Care of Yourselves

Paul and Nick,
I had the pleasure of working with your Dad at Soxman's. He was truely a gentleman. All of my memories of him will be good ones! Your Dad always spoke highly of his family so I am sure you now have a personal Guardian Angel watching over you.

Dear Aunt Molly,Mom,Dad,Paul,Nick and families,
I know Uncle Gabe is at peace with our Lord now.And I'm sure he is enjoying his reunion with Aunt Rita, Nonnon and Nonnie.
We will always have memories to keep...and always have him in our hearts to pray for.
Oh, and yes...those mornings on the school bus!!! We all new we'd better give him that kiss or he'd find a way! And that initial squeeze at family gatherings...!!!We all new we were very special to him.I'm very glad I was able to see him a couple of months ago...my favorite during the visit was when he wanted to go back up stairs to his bedroom and hide that pumpkin bread so he didn't have to share it with the nurses!!That was our Uncle Gabe for sure!

Dear Paul, Nick,Molly and Margie,
It is as if I have lost another part of my childhood. A majority of my fondest memories are of both Rita and Gabe spending time with my family. I remember Gabe always having a smile on his face. Everytime I drive past the bus garage I think of them both! We still even talk about Bullet! I like to believe that Gabe is now with Rita, Bobby and my dad having a Saltsburg Road reunion. My sincerest sympathy and as long as we keep them in our hearts they will always be with us. Much love from family to all of yours.

The Fusco Family,
I met Gabe when I lived in Ft. Lauderdale and we worked together at Panciera Memorial Home in Hollywood, Florida.
He was a very nice gentleman.
Gabe moved before me and we were both from Pittsburgh.
God Bless each of you during this most difficult time.

Dear Paul,Carole,Nicky,Laurie,and Families,
I will always remember Uncle Gabe. He was good to me and my family. I'll never forget the times he would be my bus driver and kiss me in front of my friends. Finally,I learned and would just kiss him as I got on the bus. I wish we could be with you all during this difficult time. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. I will always remember my Aunt Rita and Uncle Gabe!!! Love to you all, Andrea, Michael, Alexis, and Alyssa
