My dearest Dad, Thank you for all you have done for us. I will shed many a tear for you, knowing I will never be able to kiss you and hold you again. I will miss our many discussions. Say hello to Mum and give her a kiss for me. You will be sadly missed by all who knew you. - Your loving son Phil and wife Ina. Dad, you showed us strength, honesty and love. You were always giving and asked for nothing more than to have your family around you. Our memories of long afternoons, sharing endless stories, wisdom and advice will always be treasured. Dad you will always be in our hearts and in everything we do and say. We love you Rest in peace - Rick and Vicky Darling Daddy, In our deep grief, you have let us know that you want us to celebrate your wonderful life and not mourn your passing. We already miss you so very much: your warm and loving smile, the security of your mighty strength, your precious words of wisdom and your cornerstone presence. Our family celebrations will never be the same, so we are setting a place for you and Mum at Gianni and Lisa's wedding. Now, rest in peace and know that our love is with you always. - Susan and Joseph Montalto When we lost Mum, I feel we lost a part of your too. You were lost without her and your life was never quite the same. Now it's time for you to be together again.

Give Mum a big kiss for me. - Your loving daughter Sandra. Dear Nonno, You will always be remembered for your strength and ability to give advice that didn't seem right at the time, but always was.
