Uncle Angelo will forever hold a special place in my heart. As a child,he frequented our home, for dinner, every Sunday. He accompanied our family on vacations to the shore and other destinations. He tutored me in math. He was always there for his family.
His love was unconditional. He was kind and found good in everyone. Rest in peace and know that you will live on in our hearts.

Our family will always remember Uncle Ang as the true definition of a gentleman. He was fiercely loyal to his family, dedicated to Aunt Eileen, and welcoming to all who visited their loving home. A talented Renaissance Man, we will recall him forever with a smile. God will surely bless this wonderful soul!
