TO Doc and all of the Veltri Family
I was very sorry to read about the passing of Chris. He was a great person. I remember working with him at Sarno's Formal Wear and what a nutty person he was. He will be missed.

Dear Anthony,
We are heartbroken by your fathers' passing. We know he will watch over you from a better place, a peaceful place. May your memories and all the times you spent together bring you peace. We hope he knew that he was loved and touched our lives. I hope everyone back in PA realizes he was a special part of our family and we also mourn for their loss.

Dear Anthony, I am so very sorry to hear of your Dads passing. Chris and I were roomates back in the 80's.
As I type, I remember fondly all the fun we had back then. He was the best roommate anyone could ask for. I especially remember our Sunday brunches, where all of us that hung out back then would get together and enjoy the afternoon. Your Dad was a great person, I can still hear him laugh even after all these years.
My deepest sympathy to you and your Mom.
He will always be with you Anthony, he was so proud you were his son.
Debbie
