Semper Fidelis, thank you for serving our country! Marlene,Charlie, Ferne and my daughter-in-law Kristy, spent a great amount of time with Uncle Italo, as Kristy referred to him! He got to see all of Kristy’s dogs as he greeted them at the Nursing Home! Last time I saw Uncle Italo was at Kristy’s wedding and he was dancing and having a great time, this is how I want to remember Italo! R.I.P. with your former comrades! To all of the family, my sincere condolences. Mary Regan

Italo was a great man and a great friend to me for over 45 years. Last I saw him was a few years ago in Harwich and he wanted to show me he could walk really fast! ha. I will miss him dearly - his spunk and his laughter...he, most of all, loved family and all of the get togethers when he came back to Massachusetts...He loved everyone! Thank you so much Marlene and Charlie for watching out for him. Peace & Love Nan
