The one thing I am going to miss about grandpa is everytime I saw him he would say, "Hi-ya". I am also going to miss talking to him about the baseball scores and the Mets. He will be the greatest hockey coach in heaven. Rest in peace grandpa.

My Dearest Father: As I said goodbye to you for the last time we were both crying. But in my heart I know I will see you again. You were my mentor, my hero and most of all you were my Dad. You taught me to strong, be proud and to never give up. I will always keep you close to my heart. For all that you have done for me can never match what I could ever do for you. I will miss dearly.

Dear Dad, As your first born daughter, I find it with honor to be the second one to write in your guest book. I tried so hard to see you before you entered the Kingdom of Heaven, I missed you by a couple of hours. I just wanted to tell you I love you, and see you one last time. You've held my hand; you have held my heart. You gave me my faith, and where would I be without it today. All the pain and grief is over, Every restless tossing passed; you put up quite a fight. You are now in peace forever,safely home in Heaven at last. You have left quite a legacy 18 grandchildren and 5 greatgrand hildren. Rest assured we will take care of mom. You have done a great job raising my brothers and sisters and I hope we can live peacefully, and happy lives. We are a family that thought our dad was the "Greatest".That will live with us forever and ever.
