To Tino's family and friends,
I am so saddened to hear of Tino's passing. We were friends throughout high school and we also shared a few elementary classes together. He was such a kind and generous soul. Always positive and friendly to everyone around him. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to catch up with him at our 30th High School reunion. I will remember him with fondness. My continued prayers are with you all.

I am saddened by the passing of on of my dearest friends, of my junior high, and high school years. I can honestly say I never recall a moment of anger, or a time when he made light of the shortcomings of others. My hope is that his life, though woefully to short, was filled with love and laughter. I hope his family has many wonderful moments to relive, too many to count, as they honor his existence, with the way they their lives and celebrate the time they had with him.
I can see Tino playing a Billy Joel song on the piano like it was yesterday.
Peace be with you all..... my heart aches for your loss.

I don't even where to start,he was the brother I never had growing up. We lived directly across the street from one another. So many memories,as little kids,teens and growing into adults. He had every good quality in a person you loved to be around. Sitting here typing this is really hard,anyone who knew him knows what I am talking about. I think about all the kids I grew up with on Luty Dr. in Hyde Park,NY. Tino was the most looked up to by me. So with this my friend I am putting on some Billy Joel in your memory and thinking of all the fun times we had growing up.

I don't where to start, I'm in shock. Tino and I grew up directly across the street from one another in Hyde Park. I couldn't calculate the hours we spent together as children and young adults. He was well liked by everybody,always a good guy. My condolences to the Dangelo family,his wife and daughters and everyone who was touched by his great up beat attitude and kind way. I miss you my brother,RIP.
