Strikingly handsome, an impeccable dresser flashing a warm and genuine smile, possessing a firm but gentle handshake, a quick wit and a well balanced sense of humor. These are but a few of my memories upon meeting Mr. Iuliano some 25+ years ago. Mrs. Iuliano, the evidence that Sal was such a kind and loving gentleman is the kind and loving gentleman that you and he produced. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Lucia, Gary, & Becky-
I was very saddened to hear about Sal's passing. He was obviously someone that really lived every day to the fullest and had some wonderful adventures. While I know that words are only a small gesture of support, I want you all to know that You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.
"His life earnest, his actions kind,
A willing hand, an active mind,
Anxious to please, loath to offend,
A loving husband, father, & faithful friend."
