  1. To a great Man, Father and Friend

    Dad, you fought the great fight but sadly you needed the rest and peace you deserve after enduring the suffering from the “Rotten Disease”.

    You’re now at rest and united with the many family and friends who have gone before you. I’m going to miss you and will never forget the wonderful memories we created together.

    Love you Vecio.

    Rest in peace

  6. Santolo (Godfather) Johnny,

    A kind and generous soul, who I will hold dear in my heart. So many memories, from childhood times of you playing the piano accordion and harmonica with my Dad. To recent times of giving me gardening tips, teaching me Rummikub and reminiscing.
    How wonderful it was to have you as my Santolo.

  9. To our dear Dad and Nonno

    Whilst we feel some relief now that your suffering is over, the realisation that we’ll never see your cheeky grin or the swish of the vino leaves us feeling deeply saddened.

    The sweet memories we have of you are gifts we will forever cherish.

    We love you Dad/Nonno

    Always in our hearts
