My deepest condolences for your great loss but for my Uncle it is gain… I rejoice in knowing he is with God and all those who have passed before him…his beloved sister, mother and father and many more. On the other side where one day we will all be reunited with our Lord Jesus Christ ♥️🌹

I will always remember his contagious laugh and his cool demeanour.
I especially remember our childhood visits to Toronto and hanging out at your house…Zia Gemma with her amazing meals and Zio Alfonso bringing out the wine, and spending time with Fausto and Sonia and always playing and having fun. Wonderful memories that I will cherish.
Zio Alfonso will be deeply missed and it brings comfort to know that he will be in heaven with other family members who have passed before him…
Rest In Peace Zio!❤️❤️❤️

Emilia mi informava sempre per tempo quando tu e Zia Gemma tornavate, specificatamente, data di arrivo e ripartenza.
Mi organizzavo di conseguenza e cercavo di tenermi il più libero possibile da lavoro in tale periodo per essere a tua disposizione.
Ci piaceva prendere l’auto e viaggiare per le strade e i percorsi delle nostre zone, senza una meta ben precisa.
La fortuna di poterci muovere nel nostro meraviglioso territorio e andare dall’alta montagna, al mare, attraversando le nostre vallate in una manciata di minuti, ti faceva scoprire paesini e borghi che ogni volta ti toglievano il fiato per la meraviglia.
Ti sorprendevi come un “bambino”, eri curioso e mi dicevi spesso, “ma come fai a sapere tutte queste strade, viottoli e orizzontarti senza perdere mai la bussola?”
Probabilmente, abituato alle tue enormi street canadesi, non capivi come ci si potesse ricapare in un groviglio di stradine tutte curve e così ingarbugliate in un fazzoletto di terra.
Mi mancherai, anche se passavano anni tra un nostro giro e l’altro, mi mancherà la tua presenza.
E anche se, tuo malgrado, hai dovuto intraprendere un altro percorso, sappi che ogni volta che passerò in quei luoghi tu sarai con me, in macchina.
Ciao Zio Alfò, fai buon viaggio.
