To the Mirabito family:
I knew Mr. Mirabito as a man who always seemed to smile, and find a way to help others, espeically his clients. He was a good businessman and a great example of a businessman whose faith mattered in his daily life. I thank the Good Lord for having met him.

Todd,

I am truly sorry for the loss of your father. I know how close you were to your Dad and he surely had an impact on the person you are today as well as your mother. Your Dad always had a great deal of wisdom to share and always did it in a positive but sometimes humorous way. Thanks for letting me be part of his life. My condolences go out you and your family during this difficult time.
