I had the pleasure of being on Vito’s team when I joined Staples almost 5 years ago, and wish I was able to work with him longer. He was so very supportive, full of guidance, and was an excellent mentor. He always reassured me that I could reach out to him anytime for assistance, as he was always ready to help. I was so saddened to hear of his passing, as I was always hopeful we would see him return. Thinking of his family, and everyone who knew him. Such a reminder for all of us to be so grateful for our health, for each other, and that life is so fragile. Vito was a kind gentleman who will be truly missed.
Virginia and Alyssa,
