Anthony, Joanne, Linda, Steve, Sandy, Chuck,
When I learned of the passing of Mr Valente, I was brought back many years ago in remembering what a wonderful man he was; someone to admire, always a kind smile, and a welcoming greeting. What a beautiful and loving family is the way I remember the Valentes of which Mr Valente was the head and example. My heart felt sympathies to all. God bless your family.

Anthony and Family.
I am so very sorry for your loss.
Mr. Valente was a very kind & generous person.
He was an absolute gentleman.
I always admired and respected him.
He taught me so many things working with him that I still use in my daily life & in my business to this day.
He was also my first pool customer. When we put the pool on the top of the mountain at the A-frame.
God bless you and your family.
Love and respect,
Anthony Zanni
