elevated zgfDA I’ll miss you Papa Fresco – full of life and energy. Passion for the world and our family. You made sure every day was a joy to wake up to in my life. You made every festa better. Food, music, bocce, soccer. Games. Boyish and playful. You lived life to your fullest and experienced fully all the things that makes us truly human. Heart on your sleeve. Gardening like it was your full time job. Greens everywhere. Spending a year to grow a couple figs in canada because fresh from the tree there is nothing like it. You’re Nico’s favourite. Saturday? Go to work. 14 hour days. What is this manicomio. The fist pumps you gave when you found out Christina was having a boy. Climbing trees in your mid 70s cause in Sicily how else you going to get to the best carruba. Busting out the accordion. Historia De Un Amor. La dolce vita. Always thinking of your children. Helped me get off my feet and ready for the world. Louder than you need to be but just right. Spinach for breakfast. Going to the market. Clean clean clean! Do things right the first time. Always willing to help. Keep busy. Renovating bathrooms before it was cool. Wonderful husband. Nothing but true love for your sisters. Fullest smile. Still you don’t understand. You’ll see. Celebrating a goal I scored. No one could whistle louder. Bastarduna for dessert. What have you been eating? Minchia. Go to University. Never stop learning. Preaching like Cicero. Don’t cheat anyone. Why’s it so cold here you can’t even grow a lemon tree. You should try the ones in Sicily. Running down the stairs yelling to teach me about tech tonic plates. The world is amazing. Fantastic. Beautiful. Canada is the best country. Be fair to everyone.
elevated zgfDA I’ll miss you and I love you. Thank you for being my papa.
Aunt Frances, Ann Marie, Mark and Joe. Our deepest condolences on the loss of our beloved Uncle Sam.
Uncle Sam you were a very loving uncle always hopping around and excited. You spent many wonderful years living with us and grandma. 10 people in one tiny house. So many memories, you played the accordion for us and were the life of the party, encouraged us to get a good education and make good investments, promoted healthy eating, growing an amazing garden, always sharing food with us, went to the hospital to pick up the new born twins and my mom from the hospital in your VW Beetle. Fantastic!
You will always be in our hearts.

On behalf of the Pupulin family, we wish to extend our sincere condolences for your loss. Sam was truly a joy to be with. His kindness, zest for life and generosity always prevailed. Sam was enthusiastic to attend weekly accordion lessons with Neal, who we sadly lost in November. He was always thrilled to share the bounties of his garden with our family. We truly feel your pain, made even more challenging in these difficult times. Take comfort knowing that Sam and Neal are in heaven, making joyful music, together. God bless.

Dear Uncle Sam, words cannot explain the wonderful person you were. Always encouraging us to get ahead. Always giving us good advise. I will never forget you saying to me: Although You can from good wealth while your parents were in New York and then returned to Vita, it wasn’t easy for your mom to adjust to the country life. You once told me, although we didn’t succeed as I was 10 years old when my dad died, I’m going to work hard so that my kids will enjoy life at the fullest. You worked very hard but achieved what you wanted for your family. I must say he had the support of your loving wife Frances. Uncle Sam wanted the best for everyone. He was a very optimistic loving person. There will never be one similar to him. Uncle Sam you were one and only. You will always be in hearts and never ever forgotten. Love 💕 ❤️❤️❤️ You forever.

Le mie piu sentite condoglianze
To Frances, Ann Marie, Mark and Joe,
We are so sorry to hear about the loss of your great husband and father. We’ll always remember Sam as a very hard-working man, especially outside gardening from early morning until late at night—John could never keep up. He was always welcoming to all of us and to Chris. He loved his family very much and touched many people—that is a wonderful legacy and one that will hopefully be of some comfort to all of you and those who knew him. We are sending all of you much love at this difficult time.
God Bless You, Sam, and rest in peace—another angel for us in Heaven.
