Dearest Sue, Jerry, Richie, Darin and Family,

I am terribly sorry to hear of Dino's sudden passing. I am mourning for your loss right beside all of you as this time of year is already difficult for me having lost Nicky on June 17, 1993.
Thankfully Faith and Prayers have gotten me through this ordeal. I have prayed the rosaries for Dino and all of you.
I know that Nicky has welcomed Dino into heaven and that they are catching up and embracing one another.
With all of my Love and Prayers,
Hilda Messore Salerno
