A special thank you to the Rizzo family, the De Paolis family, the Pannese family, the Pascuzzi family and his favourite niece Lina Pilato, who made his last years bearable as he bravely and stoically struggled with dementia. The care, respect, love and compassion you gave him will not be forgotten.
