The greatest Nonno on the planet. Family was everything to him, and we can’t even grieve him in the way he would have wanted, together. Despite our despair over losing him, I can’t help but reflect on the amazing life he led. He had a smile on his face everyday and was perfectly happy with whatever he had. He carried our family through every storm and never asked for anything in return. The love he had for us was unmatched. If you ever had the pleasure of being invited into his home, he made sure you left with a full belly and maybe even a slight grappa buzz. His garden flourished year after year. It was a testament to the same kind of love, patience, and hard work he put into his family. He leaves in his wake a trail of broken hearts but who are all the more better for knowing him. We will never forget him, his legacy is immortal. Salut Nonno, until we meet again.
