We are so sorry for your loss.
Giuseppe – Joe, to us – was such a caring neighbor for the past 20 years. We’ll miss his beautifully trimmed hedge, his tomato seedlings, his guidance on our rose bush pruning, and all the time we spent together outdoors.
His kindness, compassion, and good humour made him a wonderful neighbor and a good friend.
He will be missed.
