To the Ceragioli Family
Today, I learned of Silvio’s passing. I had never met him, but knew of him through his devoted daughter, Micki. I met Micki at the NAMI Walk in Golden Gate Park and we have become friends. Through her eyes and from what I have been reading, he was a wonderful person, husband, father and much more. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Ceragiloi Family,
Please accept the condolences of the O'Malley Family. Sil and our Dad(Joe)were SFPD partners and friends for many years. Sil was always lending a helping hand to our Father in raising 7 boys after our Mom passed away. I still remember Sil coming to the house and making sure everything was going okay.
