Ciao Nick, è stato un piacere conoscerti anche se non per molto tempo ma ricorderò sempre quei giorni trascorsi a Vieste con tua moglie e la mia famiglia.
Riposa in pace e veglia sulla tua splendida famiglia
Sending our sincere condolences to the entire family during this difficult time. Nick was a true gentleman and one I wish to have had more time with. Nick has left a beautiful legacy filled with love and priceless memories. God bless Nick and may he rest in peace.
Riposa in pace Nick non ho avuto il piacere di conoscerti per tanto tempo ma mi eri sembrato una persona squisita!
Sending our sincere condolences to the family.
Nick may you text in peace.
Dearest Joanne
On behalf of the bible study, we are all broken hearted to hear of your husband’s passing. We pray that Mother Mary in her many graces gives you, and your family, the strength and peace during this most difficult time.
May Nick rest in peace and be welcomed with the angels into heaven.
Dear Nick,
You will be remembered as a gentleman and a dear true friend.
May the grace of God remain with you forever.
Being a kind and a real gentleman is the first thing that comes to mind when I think of Nick. Always pleasant to be around, always with a genuine smile and always ready and eager to help a friend or a relative in need.
Rest in peace Nick, and may God give peace and blessings to his whole family.
Our condolences. We are saddened by your loss, having only the fondest memories. Visits with our cumpa’ Nick were always an event. He and cumma’ Joanne were best man and maid of honor at our wedding, and remained close friend for all these years. There will never be another like him. We will remember you, and miss you.
Dai cumpari, George e Filomena Rinaldi, Joseph & Stella.

Dear Nick,
Thank you for opening your house to me. Thank you for being kind and accepting of me. Thank you for being a father figure for the brief time our lives crossed. I have always valued the advise you gave me. I always looked up to you and wanted you to be proud of me. I am sorry if I ever let you down. You lived your life with grace, humor, a pure and kind heart. I admired how much you loved your family and how much you were always there for them. The world was a better place with you in it.
Rest in peace.
