Although I have not seen or known Vito for many years, I was deeply saddened by the news of his passing. We had been friends in our teen years, going to dances at St. Alfred's and hanging out at brother Frank's "Wings & Things". He was so much fun and always made me laugh so hard that I cried. My thoughts and prayers are with his family, especially his wife and children. Being married, with children of my own, I imagine it must be so difficult to face each day without your beautiful husband and father. I hope you find peace and comfort in the days ahead, knowing you are cared about so profoundly and that Vito has touched so many lives. May God bless you and keep you in your sorrow.

TO DIANE, MARK, EMILY AND FAMILY:
I HAVE FOND MEMORIES OF VITO FROM AS RECENTLY AS VITO'S FUNDRAISER AND AS FAR BACK AS GRADE SCHOOL. IT IS A WONDERFUL THING TO KNOW HOW SO SO MANY PEOPLE KNEW AND LOVED HIM.
THERE ARE NO WORDS RIGHT NOW THAT CAN EASE YOUR PAIN OR MAKE YOU FEEL BETTER, BUT I KNOW IN TIME YOU WILL FIND COMFORT AND ENCOURAGEMENT IN KNOWING WHAT AN IMPRESSION HE LEFT ON ALL WHO WERE PROUD TO HAVE VITO AS A PART OF THEIR LIVES. THE MEMORIES HE LEFT IN YOUR HEART AND MIND WILL PUT A BIG SMILE ON YOUR FACE ONCE AGAIN. REMEMBER...HE IS IN PEACE, FREE FROM PAIN AND SICKNESS AND IN THE PRESENCE OF SO MUCH LOVE. THINKING OF YOU ESPECIALLY DIANE AS I KNOW WHAT IT IS TO LOSE A HUSBAND. ALL THESE THINGS I TYPED IN THIS CONDOLENCE ARE SO VERY TRUE. WHEN YOU FIND STRENGTH TO READ ALL OF THESE MESSAGES MAY THEY EACH FEEL LIKE INDIVIDUAL HUGS FROM THOSE WHO CARE.

I went to school with Vita and our backyards joined up together when I lived on Garnet Street. I am so sad to hear that Vito was taken so young. He was such a nice person, kind and caring. Diana, Mark and Emily-I am so sorry for your loss. He will always be close to you - keeping close to your heart. Sorry I could not be at the service, as I did not know until yesterday and I live a couple hours away. God Bless you all. Teresa

Diana, Mark and Emily. Being a neighbor living directly behind you I got to meet your husband and dad over the fence many times. He was always a real joy to talk to and always had kind words for me and my family. It really didn't matter what I was fixing or building he made me feel good with his comments. He will be sadly missed. Our prayers are with you.

Words alone cannot express our sympathy on the death of your beloved husband, father, brother, uncle and friend. To say that Vito's time was far too short is an understatement. You are all in our thoughts and we pray that you will find the strength and courage to get through this difficult time. Much love, Colleen, Curt, Nora D'Anna and family.

We will never forget Vito and had been friends with him for well over 20 years. We were very fortunate to grow closer to him in hospice, as difficult as those circumstances were. Our son Jack was very fond of Vito, always making him giggle and encouraging him to run! He also adores Diane, who doesn't, she will always be special to us all. Vito will be sadly missed by us and many. Lots of hugs, support and prayers to all of the family. Mirella, Remo and Jack Colantoni xxx
