Mr Civa was the nicest man!! He loved his family so much and was super proud of all his children and grandchildren!! One fun memory we have of him is when he helped us pick out some carpet for our basement. We had so much fun talking to him that we were sad when it came time to actually make a decision and buy the carpet! We think of him all the time because we love the carpet he recommended!!

We wish the Civa family peace as Vincent joins his wife and other relatives up in heaven. Love, the Santomo family
