Hey Dad - You would have been 84 on the 8th, we all miss you so much. It hurts more around your birthday and Christmas. Frank is doing so good since they removed his spleen, who knew that would solve a lot of his problems. We're going tomorrow for a photography sitting with Candee too. Frank wants a portrait of us to hang in the living room. It will go over the curio that has yours and Mom's memories in. Miss you much! Love - Sandi, Frank, and Candee

Hey Dad - It's been way too long since I left a message here. So much has happened since last October. Frank had surgery on March 19, and I know you were there to help him get through it safely. He is doing so much better, but you already know that.
Also, we closed on your mobile on May 29th, and I think you'd be happy with the couple who bought it. They're a little older than me and they have so many plans for renovating the dining room and the backyard.
Now that Frank is driving again, we should be able to get up to the cemetery, towards the end of the summer.
I know Pattie mentioned that she was here in April. It was so good to see her, Stephanie, Jeff, and Cassidy. Cassidy is SO CUTE, and she would probably call you 'The Grandfather' too!
I'm sorry that I missed you on Fathers' Day, it isn't the same without you.
Please give a hug and kiss to Mommy, we love you and miss you so much.
Sandi, Frank, and Candee

Hi Dad,
It has been a few months since I left you a message. I am sorry about that. I wanted to leave a message on Father's Day but felt that if I wished you a Happy one it would not sound right. Well, forget that, I wish you a Happy Father's Day and hope that you and Mommy shared it together. I am not currently working but I am looking for a part time job. The Fine Jewelry store that I had in mind did not work out because they start their employees at $8.00 per hour. That's a joke... I could not accept that. Sandi and Frank are doing well and Frank is much better since his surgery. I went to NJ for Cassidy's 2nd birthday and we met Sandi and Frank for dinner. It was really great to see both of them. Hey Dad, I have been praying to you so I could win the lottery... Have you heard me? If there is anything you can do to make that possible please help me. Maybe Mom can help too...
Love always,
Pattie

Hi Dad,
It has been a while since I left a candle for you. There have been many things going on in the past few months. I retired from Verizon and instead of going in to Floral design I started working for a Fine Jewelry Department in a nearby retail store. I only wanted a part time job, but it ended up to be full time. I also ended up being the Manager of the FJ Department. I really loved my job and you would be proud of me. I took all of the knowledge that you and Mommy gave to me and I studied a little online. There was too much pressure for me and I was working too many hours at a low pay rate. I resigned from my position and I feel so much better. I wish you were here to talk to me and make me feel better about my decision. I am pursuing another Fine Jewelry Store position but I do not want to be a Manager... I love and miss you so much... Love always Pattie
PS I will light a candle more often.:)

Hey Dad - It's the day before the marking of one year since you died. It's still in my memory as if it were yesterday. We miss you so much! I haven't been able to get to the cemetery because of Frank's health. He is having surgery in a couple of weeks, and I know you and Mommy will be watching over to make sure everything goes ok. I wish you were here to give me a hug, I really need it more than ever. We love you, Sandi, Frank, and Candee

Happy Fathers Day, Dad. We miss you not being here for your special day. Thank you and Mommy for watching over Frank while he was in the hospital. He did come home on Wednesday, but we don't have any results yet.
Larry and Dawn are making progress on the house.
Aunt Ann Bernarducci passed away on June 5, and your army buddy Russel joined you on June 3rd.
We love you Dad, and we miss your laughter. Love - Sandi, Frank, and Candee

Hey Dad - a lot has been going on the past month. You probably know that Frank has been in and out of the hospital for the past month, because I've asked you and Mommy to watch over him. You know that I love him so much, as I know you did too, he always made you laugh!
He might be coming home today or tomorrow, please put in a good word. Love - Sandi, Frank, and Candee

Dad,
I know it has been a while since I sent you a message. I am sorry about that. You know that I think about you often. I still wish that I could call you up on the phone and say that I love you and chat about whatever. One thing that our family knows is that we love each other very much. I am thinking about taking up Floral Design and getting a job in a florist or even as a Landscape Designer. I have your drive that makes me want to work. This retirement stuff is for the birds!
I love you and miss you

Hello Dad,
I am sorry I did not post anything on your birthday but I want you to know that I was thinking about you on that day, as I do often. Christmas went by without you this year and it was very sad for me. I planned on buying you some very special cologne this year. I know how you loved to smell wonderful. I still don't realize that you are not here with us. I miss you so much and I hope that some day we will be together. I hope Mommy is behaving and she is taking care of you.
Love always Pattie</b></font><br><br>

Hey Dad - Happy Birthday! We miss you so much. Frank and I stopped by the cemetery on Monday, and we placed a blanket on Mommy and your grave. We added some colorful Christmas ornaments to spruce it up. Your stone was supposed to have been engraved by Thanksgiving, it wasn't, and I had to call Sgobba to find out why. They said it will be done by Monday, the 11th. It's very hard today with you not here with us, but you're in our hearts and memories. Love always - Sandi, Frank, and Candee</b></font><br><br>

Dad,
I think I might be retiring from Verizon and I will find out tomorrow for sure. This is a good thing for me and I wanted you to know this. I miss you so much and I wish I could tell you what I feel in person or even over the phone. Hey Dad, I just thought of something! You are on the Internet! Isn't that something? I miss you and I love you.

Hey Dad - I can still hear your voice in my head, how you always called me Sandra instead of Sandi. It made me feel special to hear you say my given name. Today is Sue's birthday and I imagine she is missing you too. We love you and miss you so much. Sandi, Frank, and Candee</b></font><br><br>

Dad,
One month has gone by that you left us and I feel so bad that I did not get to tell you that "I Love You" one more time. I wanted you to go home from the hospital and then we could have our weekly talks on the phone. I do know that you love me and Sandi very much and that you would love to talk to us too. God decided to take you from us because he knew that we were taught love and compassion from you and Mommy and that we need to go on and teach our children and Grandchildren the same gift that we were given.
Guess what? I might be leaving Verizon by the end of this year or the beginning of next year. Don't worry Dad, because I will be fine. I am a survivor, like you...
Thanks Dad for helping me to be the person that I am.
Love and kisses

Hi Dad,
I really miss you and I want to talk to you so badly. I just got through reading some of the cards that Sandi and I received from our friends and I know that you are in a wonderful place and that we sometimes are selfish because we want you with us. If you are with Mommy, please tell her I love and miss her. Give her a big kiss and a hug for me! You are remembered by many of my friends as being a kind and gentle man. They are right about that! I do miss your laugh and talking to you about things. One thing that I do have are memories and knowing that you loved me. I have Sandi and Frank and also Christopher, Stephanie, Sue and three beautiful granddaughters. When Chris told Maddy that you had died, she said "But it is going to be his Birthday soon". Dad, you are "The Grandfather" and no one can take that away from her. I still remember when we went to Chris and Sue's house in Texas. Maddy was so excited that you were at her house. Do you remember the morning that she announced your presence as you walked down the stairs? I am sure you do and I know that she made you feel special. You are special and I want you to know that we will go on and one day we will all be together in God's house.
Love always,
Pattie</b></font><br><br>

Hey Dad - We miss you! Your certificates arrived today, so I have to start with the legal stuff. Chris is so excited to get your car, and he's making the arrangements to have it shipped out to him. I made up a card to put in the car for him, with a retouched pic of your car. I super-imposed the word "GRAMPS" on the license plate, he'll get a kick out of that. We're slowly making progress at the house. So many people are expressing their sympathy, and Nick DeFabrizio found out too late from the newspaper. He remembers you as a great watch repairman and a great guy, but we all knew that too! We love you Dad, and miss you so much! Always - Sandi, Frank, and Candee.</b></font><br><br>

Uncle Dominick,
I will really miss you, I remember at your 80th party when I handed you the cell phone and my Mom, your sister Anna was on the other end. You had a smile on your face and my sister said so did my Mom. She wished she was better to be there. At Michaels wedding you and "Mommie" sat together and I could see you both had a real good time. I will always remember at my husband Gene's 50th party, you & my Mom dancing, I have had that picture sitting on my dresser since. I am sure she met you with Aunt Shirley and my Dad in heaven. Hopefully you are all dancing. I am sorry I could not go to the cemetary that morning but unfortunately work got in the way. The night before I talked with Sandi, Pattie and your grandchildren. They will have a tough time without you here, just like I do without my Mom & Dad. If I can help them in any way, all's they have to do is call. Tell my Mom & Dad I love them & miss them so much, take care of all the animals and some day we will all see you again.
Love,
Your Neice

Dad,
I miss you so much and I wish I could call you up on the phone to tell you that "I love You" one more time. I have been waiting for you to contact me since you have gone from this earth but I have not been able to see you. I want you to know that I was in NJ for almost 1 week and it did not seem right not to talk to you. I wish we could sit and drink some wine one more time because I know how we both enjoyed doing that. I remember when I lived in Bloomigdale and you would come to visit. I loved cooking for you and I know how much you loved that too. We would sit in the living room after dinner and have our wine together. Sandi has been so comforting to me and I love her so much. You would be proud of how she is handling everything. She was always the one to take care of things and I am proud to be her sister. Dad, Chris looks so much like you and we know that your good looks are here with us through Chris. I miss you and love you.
Your daughter

Hey Dad - The days are going by slowly since you left us. We've been cleaning the house, and finding many memories. Chris will be getting your car, and I think you would like that. We wish you were here with us, I miss you so much. I spoke with aunt Mary last night, because I needed Viola and Helga's addresses. Aunt Mary looks great. Talk to you soon - love Sandi</b></font><br><br>

I am a friend of Steph and I have known Grampy since I was a little girl and we stayed at their house "down the shore" and Grandma and Gramps took us to the boardwalk! We must have given them a run for their money-- adolescent as we were. I can hear his warm greeting "mmhello?" from every time I called 27 Maple for Steph growing up. I also remember going "shopping" in the basement thru Grampa's left over jewelry from his store. Most recently I wittnessed him at Cassidy's christening with a twinkle in his eye as he looked at his granddaughter and great granddaughter! What I will remember most was his warm smile and happy state of being. He has passed along his best traits to his family. He was so lucky to have been loved by all of you! May God Bless "The Grandfather"</b></font><br><br>

Hey Dad - It's the day after the cemetery, and you would have been proud of the 2 soldiers and officer that were there to honor you. They played Taps on a CD player, and it brought a few tears to my eyes. Bill Ruth left a nice voicemail on our phone, and were going to a Saturday mass the same time as yours to pray for you and those of us who are left behind with broken hearts.
Aunt Mary and MaryAnn were there for the final goodbye, and at the Bethwood to join us who were there (all 17 of us). It hurt us deeply that your family didn't join us. Barbara was at the church, but a stupid feud kept your sister Alice and nieces and nephews away! You didn't deserve that, you were too good of a man. Why couldn't they have just been civil to each other just this once, for you and us? Our friends were there to comfort and console us, they truly are a blessing. I had to get this off of my chest because it does hurt us to remember their abscence on this day of sorrow for us. We love you Dad, and you will ALWAYS be in our hearts. Christopher looks so much like you, everybody said it at the wake. He told us of the time at the Laguna Beach Brewery, how you matched him beer for beer, and it was a little too much for you. We all have stories that make us chuckle, because we had fun, and enjoyed laughter, I'm going to miss your laughing at my corny jokes. I'll be checking in here to leave my thoughts for you to read, from time to time. WE LOVE YOU! Candee always got excited when you came over, her tail would wag so much it would create a breeze with that little nub of a tail. I have your grey sweater here sitting on the couch in the sunroom, and she jumped up there, started smelling it, and her tail started wagging in high gear. We miss you so much already, if I didn't have Frank, Pattie and the kids, I don't know what I would do. LOVE ALWAYS - Sandi, Frank, and Candee</b></font><br><br>

Oh our Gramps....we love you so much. We wish little Cassidy could have gotten to know "The Grandfather". Jeff and I will tell her all about you and Grandma. I have so many memories that will be with me forever. Your love and gentle being has been the highlight of our family. Grampy...you taught me how to ride my bike, told great stories and let me sip some scotch while watching the Yanks! You will be missed by so many people. You will live on in our hearts!

“The Grandfather�, that is how we’ll always remember Dominick. Our daughter Maddy had never been more enamored with a person. She would sit in Dominick’s lap and just beam! The funny thing was that Maddy was afraid of most men, but not Grandpa Dominick….he was a gentle soul who made all around him calm.
Here are some of our fond memories:
That hearty “heh heh heh� laugh that always made you smile.
Chris and Gramp’s “beer fest� at Laguna Beach Brewing Company.
Our family visit in Texas when we thought we were going to a French restaurant named “Le Fees� only to find out the name was “Lefty’s�. Now that was funny! Gramp’s ate Lobster FraDiavolo and got it all over himself! He then went back to the house where he sat in “the grotto� in our pool and drank way too much beer with Chris.
The time that Gramps came to visit us in California and we ate an Italian dinner at my brother’s house. He asked for the hot pepper, which he proceeded to dump all over his food. He began coughing as he ate it…it was WAY too hot for him. He didn’t complain though; kept telling us it was “wonderful�.
There are not enough words to describe how much he will be missed! We love you Gramps and we miss you so! We know that Grandma is up there saying “what took you so long Y-O?�</b></font><br><br>

Well Domimick, it's time to say goodbye. The few years that I called you daddy was important years of my life, I could make you laugh all the time, I've seen the Relationship you have with your daughters were great. Sandi loves you so much you'll never know, we had a lot of happy times together, the card games, you always won and we all laughed. I remember when you talked to sandi and it was time to say goodbye sandi always said I love you and in the background I said I love you also you always laughed, these things will always stay in my heart. I love you and we'll ALL miss you. LOVE FRANK.</b></font><br><br>

I will miss you so much and I love you even more. I have so many fond memories that will never fade from my mind or my heart. You have been an inspiration to me all through my life. I know that you are at rest and perhaps Mommy is there with you. I will see you at heavens gates when my time comes. One thing I know is that ever since Mommy left us we have become so much closer. I love you Dad!

Dearest Dad - Words cannot express the ache in our heart right now. We thought you were coming home with us on Friday, but God chose to take you home with him. You got to see your army buddies one last time, which is a slight comfort to us. You were so special to us, and we love you more than you know. You became more than just a father to me, you are my friend. We had good times and great memories, and you are the best father that anyone could have. Mommy can watch over you and keep you safe. Until we meet again, with Love, your daughter Sandi, and son-in-law Frank.</b></font><br><br>
