We just heard the sad news of Zio Silvio’s passing. Our families were close when I was a kid growing up.
In addition to being a great Uncle, Silvio always had the utmost respect for my parents, Elena and Jimmy Scianitti. When my father was house-bound in his later years, Silvio would jump on his bike and spend the afternoon with them. It was always a welcomed visit and many laughs were shared.
He will be sorely missed and our hearts and prayers go out to Maria, Luciano and his family. Rest in Peace Zio Silvio.
My uncle was a kind, soft spoken man with an infectious smile.
I will always remember the love he had for his family.
He loved my mother, his sister and always found the time to make her part of his daily routine. Whether it was a phone call or a 6am visit to the house to share a cup of coffee with his sister, Zio would always brighten her day.
In the end they both accepted the challenges that their health would demand.
May the Good Lord give Zia Maria, Luciano and his family the strength and courage to meet the days ahead, and fuel those days with loving memories of Zio Silvio.
Fernanda and I will always remember the giant of a man that he was.
Con tanto affetto,
Tony and Fernanda
