Papa, I will forever be in your debt. You taught me so much and always supported and guided me in all the important areas of my life. You were the first man I ever loved and you taught me to dance and cook and to embrace the love of learning (Ancora Imparo). It has been my privilege to care for you in your later years as you had cared for Anthony and me since the day we were born. I miss you deeply but know that you are now with Mom and that you are once again happy to be close to her. Your job, however, is not yet done. I ask that you lovingly watch over us and continue to whisper your guidance until we are once again reunited. Love you Pops.
I love you Papa.
Thank you for being my compass and showing me the right path and for guiding me in the right direction over my lifetime.
I am heartbroken, but gain comfort knowing that we were by your side and that you are no longer suffering and instead now with Mom, watching over all of us.
I pray that I can be as great a Dad to my children as you have been to me and Anna
and a great Nonno to my grandkids one day as you have been to Lauren, Ava, Nathan, Marcus and Lucas.
You taught me a lot of lessons through out the years as I grew up but that the most important thing in life is family and to protect them and to always watch over them and be there for them no matter what.
It is times like these that we must lean on them the most.
You helped me during some very difficult times in my life and my appreciation cannot be measured.
While you may be gone from this world, know that you will never be forgotten and will always be in my heart and mind.
Love you Dad, now Rest in Peace, I got this!
Dear Anna and Anthony, my deepest sympathies go out to you and your family for the loss of your father. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time. I will remember and hold dear to my heart the many occasions when Signore Nazzareno shared his wisdom with me and showed me his kind heart. Anna, I will miss the great talks I had with him while drinking espresso at your kitchen table and mine. A good man has passed from this world to a better place, and a good soul has ascended to heaven where he will dance with your mother. I will cherish them in my memories. Riposa in Pace Signore Nazzareno.
Our most sincere condolences,
Joanna and Gerry De Girolamo and family
Hello Anna and Tony and your families: We wish to extend our deepest sympathies at the loss of your beloved dad. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this time. We wish we could hug you in person; however this pandemic has made such expressions of love and support impossible. However, rest assured we stand close to you all at this time and in the days ahead. May the Good Lord give Nazzareno peace and tranquility and we are certain that he is hugging your mom who I'm sure received him with a loving embrace.
Sending all of our love,
Assunta Baldassini and Maria Giusti
Dear Nonno,
I will always be your grandson, and it is a title I am honored to have. I’d like to thank you for always putting others first, especially your grandkids. You always made sure I ate, and always encouraged me to drive your car. Even though you were suffering, you still made it your goal to make the PSWs laugh. These few examples can’t even begin to show how selfless and caring you are towards your friends and family members. You always encouraged me to follow my dreams of being a businessman and an architect. I will always cherish my memories of going to Markville Mall with you, and the weekends at the cottage. I always believe that there is light at the end of every dark tunnel, a pot of gold at the end of every rainbow. During this Christmas season, you gain the greatest gift of all: spending this time with Nonna. I will always be her Junior as well. I ask for you to continue to watch over me and keep me safe, until we meet again.
Love,
Marcus
