People came from everywhere to enjoy a meal, a glass of wine and listen to some mandolin music. Luigi was always there to welcome people and make them feel at home. Family and friends alike have memories of laughing and sharing good food and a glass of wine with him. We will all miss Luigi very much as he has touched so many lives. He will continue to be an inspiration to all who knew him.
