My husband was one of Vito's customers for more than 10 years. We are so surprised to hear of his loss. When I would go to Vito's office to renew my husband's insurance coverage, Vito and I would always talk about our families. He was such a compassionate man who loved and cherished his family. You felt his warmth the minute he spoke. We feel blessed to have had him touch our lives. I know that his love and memory will carry you through the storms. We send our heartfelt, condolescenses.
