I first met Dino back in 1960 when he was the custodian at Madison Elementary School in San Francisco, and I was an eight year old second grader at the school.
Dino was always friendly to everyone. Almost everyday, we would say hi and talk about Willie Mays and the Giants.
In the late 80's and 90's, I used to see Dino at the Giants games. When I first saw him at a game, I stopped by his seat and said hello to him and asked if he remembered me. He looked at me and it took him a couple of seconds before he smiled and said, "Ben?" We huggd and talked for a few minutes about Madison.
Whenever I saw Dino at the ballpark, I bought him a hotdog and coffee or hot chocolate.
I will always have wonderful memories of Dino.

Dino was practically the informal mayor of Cow Hollow. Everyone knew him by name, whether it be at Jamba Juice, Valentino Market, or just about anywhere in the neighborhood. He was a neighborhood fixture on his daily walks. My sympathies to your family on this sad loss.

Dino was Pixley Alley, i knew him all my life, what an intellect. If you ever wanted to know Cow Hollow or any of it's folk, just ask Dino. I can't make it tomorrow, but I will think of him....we lived on the best street (alley) and knew it.. I thank my lucky stars that I still live there, my family, Shannon, Erin, Greg, Allie, Ben, Luca and ella say goodbye Dino..

Dino was an amazing individual who was willing to show love to anyone who in need. He was a huge part of our neighborhood and will never be forgotten. He will be missed forever, but my love will continue.
