Uncle Dante, as we affectionately knew him, was a beautiful soul. His smile would light up a room, and his kindness knew no bounds. He was a wonderful uncle, and without a doubt, the best dad, Tato (grandfather) and great grandfather anyone could wish for. We all were blessed to have him in our lives. Though we will miss him so much, we know he is at peace and reunited with the love of his life, Clorinda, and his beautiful and brilliant granddaughter, Bianca. Rest in peace, Zio.

What a man. He always made me feel welcomed and advised me on radio administration that he and his brother knew instinctively. I will miss his smile and his humor.
