Gennaro, as each day passes, we miss you more and more. I will never forget Abtan's class as well as our cooking class. We miss you so much and there is nothing in this world that could make this pain easier, until we see you again one day. I hope your enjoying your stay in heaven. Pius will never be the same, and there is not one day where you dont cross our minds. We love you Gennaro, happy 17th birthday, "Allah Yirhamak"

Gennaro,
I could honestly say that you were one of the most important people in my life. Such a loyal friend, its hard to accept the fact that your gone. I will never forget the talks and advice you gave me. You were one of the fiew people i could call at 3 in the morning and you were always there to answer. Even though you dont answer now, i still call just to hear your voice. I miss you so much and just know that i will forever "be your girl" like you always said. You were always there looking out for me and know that i will say ur name in honour. I will grow old and tell my grand children about you. I love you with all my heart, i will never forget that night i was leaving for italy and u told me you were gonna miss me and that i had to tell you all about it when i got back. Sadly i never got a chance to but dont you worry we will meet again. We have so much catching up to do. You better get me Vip to all the clubs in heaven!
I love you..

Hi I was shocked when i first found out that Gennaro died. I had known him for quite a while cause he has lived on my street and I have been very close with Nina his sister HE is still with us all
God Bless Gennaro ?

I cannot believe its been almost 4 months that Gennaro passed away. There has not been one day where he did not cross my mind but in my heart i know he is with God and always protecting the family. I miss seeing him and Mike walk by in the E building while i go up to them and make conversation. i never knew that was shortly going to be just memories. though i never really talked to Gennaro i know he is amazing. and thats why God was in need of an angel. He knows we all miss him and st pius has not been the same and never will be. we miss and love you Gennaro impossible to be forgotten.

Who Knew…

When you walked by me on a crowded street

You were celebrating Frances’ defeat

I waved you over

And we spoke for a while

I’ll never forget that brilliant smile

I made a joke while you were walking by

“Are you to busy to stop and say hi?”

But it was I who should have made more time

Instead I’m sitting here trying to write a rhyme

But with busy lives and always something to do

Who knew?

That’d be the last time I’d see you

Love u and miss u…

Gennaro, I love you so much and miss you undescribably and I really wish that we could have been closer. I wish I could take back so many things but nothing can be done now. I guess I can just hope that you're looking down on us all and protecting us, just like you always did when you were with us. I really hope you're safe and in a better place because thats what you truly deserve. You meant the world to me and no one could ever replace you. I think about you every single day and nothing in this world could make this pain easier on me but please give me the strength to deal with this. We all love and need you. Love your FAVOURITE little sister Nina

To My Family Peter, Sofia, Franco, Nina and Jordon. I feel your loss every day, for my tears won't stop either. Gennaro was a beautiful handsom young man and had many gifts he silently showed. He loved life and lived each day to the fullest. Gennaro, we love you and words cannot express how proud I was of you my wonderful nephew. Vincenzo misses you and Matteo keeps wanting to hear your song, he says "nanno's song". You are our angel, I love you and miss you always. Love Zia Lori Zio Angelo and cousins Vincenzo and Matteo D'Alessio.
