Dear Rizzo Family,
I had the joy of taking care of Joe while he stayed at St. Peter's Hospital. I am so sorry for your loss and may your spirits stay strong during this difficult time.

MaryAnn and Family,
My sincere sympathy to the Rizzo and Degenero family at this very difficult, sad time. It is with heavy heart that I'd like to share these words in the attempt to console by best friends, MaryAnn and Dolores. I have found peace in the following prayer, I can only pray that someday soon, this prayer will do the same for you and your family...
When I come to the end of the road
And the sun has set for me
I want no rites in a gloom filled room, why cry for a soul set free.
Miss me a little but not too long
and not with your head bowed low,
Remember the love that we once shared,
Miss me - but let me go
For this is a journey we all must take and each must go alone. It's all a part of the Master's plan, a step on the road to home. When you are lonely and sick of heart, go to the friends you know...and bury your sorrows in doing good deeds, Miss me - but let me go...
God Bless you all...

Joe,
My wife has often said that I would miss my own funeral. Well, I missed yours. I showed up @ Clinton Funeral Home on the 20th only to be told that the wake had taken place on the 19th. I hope you will forgive me as you were a good neighbor and a fellow bowler. I will remember you.
