May you Rest in peace and sleep in the arms of Jesus with no pain but your beloved wife next to you , with no tears but the love that you have left your family and grandchildren with .
In the 50 years I have known this family
some of the best memories I have growing up are of lazy summer
days spent on this man’s porch.
Memories of a strong quiet man tending to his garden and birds and sometimes sitting at the head of his table enjoying his grappa and cheese who would look up from time to time to acknowledge me with a funny sarcastic remark and just as quietly go back to his lunch. A generation of men we will never see the likes of again. Rest In Peace
Sonia, Marina and Milva: So sorry to hear about your loss. I wish I could be present.
May the good memories give you some peace and may your dad R.I.P.
Dear Sonia, Marina and Milva, we are so sorry for your loss of your father. He was a kind man, and extremely talented. Losing two parents in just a few short months is heartbreaking. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Kind regards, Lucy Pupulin, Susan Cesario, Lisa Clark and family.
Milva, Sonia, and Marina, We are so sorry for the loss of your beloved dad. I will always remember his gentleness, his warm smile, and his love for his birds. May he rest in eternal peace alongside your sweet mom. May Jesus’ loving arms embrace them both and surround them with everlasting peace, love, and rest. Our deepest and heartfelt condolences to you and your families during this difficult time. Love the Marazzi Family
Dear Milva and Family,
My deepest condolences on the passing of your father. May he rest in peace and may he be remembered fondly by his family and friends.
