Nino (HB) My beautiful, loving Husband. You are and always will be the love of my life. Thank you for the greatest love story, everyday, for 39.5 years and thank you for the greatest gift, our beautiful Children.
Love you always and forever Fil (SB) ♥ xxx

Dad, we were so lucky to have you as our Dad.
You were always so supportive, selfless, and would drop everything for us in an instant. Every day, through both your actions and your words, you would show us how much we were loved. We really couldn't have asked for a better Dad. Your dedication didn't stop there. You were a proud team manager, a great friend to go to the football with, and of course, the best roommate in Sydney. Every time you messaged us, you would finish with "sorry for the inconvenience", but the only inconvenience was leaving us too soon.
We will miss you every day and love you forever.
Sara, Tiana, Christian, and Michael xoxo

Nino sei stato il piu meglio figlio che potevamo avere. I nostri cuori sono a pezzi. Sarei sempre con noi nelle nostri pensieri e nel cuore.
Ti vogliamo tanto bene, Mum and Dad

Nino you were the best big Brother a Sister could ever have. You helped me with maths and I helped you with English and together we made our Parents proud. My heart is broken but you will be with me forever. Thank you for also being such a great Brother-in-law to Pat and the best Uncle to our Children. Your dedication to your Family was an inspiration to all of us.
Love you forever
Anna, Pat, Anthony, Andrew, Kayla and Keyan

Nino, I was 14 when you became my big Brother. Thank you for helping me cram for all those exams, for all the laughter and for all your love and support, especially in this last year when I needed you most. Also thank you for being such an amazing Husband to my Sister Fil and Father to Sara, Tiana and Christian, who have had an extraordinary life because of you. Your endless kindness to others, is a reminder to all of us to do better.
We will miss you, but you will always be with us.
Love Adriana

Nino, our much loved Brother-in-law and Uncle. You are a wonderful man who showed your love and support for Family and others every single day. Never hesitating to help in any way you could, always smiling. You will be missed but always remembered so fondly.
Love Elisa, Mark and Nicholas
