To Grace and all the Vitale family, our heartfelt sympathy goes out to each and everyone of you. Peter was a man that we had not known for a long time, but true friends are not measured by how long you have known them, but what someone has done to touch someone's heart like Peter did with us. He was truly a great man who we are sure will be be missed by family and friends in St. Louis, but it will not be the same when we visit our son Mark and Melissa. I will miss the little conversations we had about everything and his homeland Italy. Rest in peace Peter, and may God look over you and Bless you.

Grace, Angie, Sammy, Mikey & Peter, I heard of Pete's passing on Friday & was so saddened to hear of your loss. I feel so lucky that I was able to see him, along with Grace & Peter when I visited the Hill last year. I will never forget growing up across the street from you all and babysitting for you guys. Pete always had a smile on his face & a comeback always on the tip of his tongue! He will be truly missed. God Bless you all.

To the VITALE FAMILY:
Please know of the prayerful sympathy of all the members of the MEN's CLUB at ST. JOSEPH SHRINE on the death of our beloved member, PETE VITALE.
PETE's enthusiasm, friendship and organizational loyalty was a dynamic force that really helped our Men's Club "go" for the many years he was active in it with us.
We are having some Masses read for PETE at ST. JOSEPH's SHRINE from all his "brother members" in the MEN's CLUB--and be assured of our prayerful sympathy to you and your family on his passing. He will truly be missed by all of us.
REST in PEACE, PETE!

He will be missed by many.
