RIP Zio Domenico
Thank you, Gianetta. Remember that name? When you first came back from Italy in the late 1970’s and the 3 of us shared a bedroom (you must have been 4 or so at that time). We were so happy that you came back. He looked at you as you were sleeping and said “she looks like a movie star.” Great memory. RIP Domenico.
May God Bless and Keep you – Caludio and family, during this time of great loss. My sincerest sympathies and prayers.
Thank you so much for everything you have done. You are my brother forever. A man who everyone would turn to for a final solution when they had a difficult problem. RIP bro’. Enjoy the music of the angels.
Rest In Peace Dom. I have just learned of your passing and am heartbroken. Has I’ve known you since I was 2 years old. Although time had shifted us apart you always stayed close in ways I didn’t understand until now. I will miss you and wish I got the chance to say goodbye.
