Angelo also leaves behind many, many cousins and family from the Tri-Community and surrounding area.

Angelo always greeted you with a kiss, a great big hug or a special handshake, and always took the time to say hello. The pain, the hurt, the sadness and grief of losing Angelo so suddenly will be in our hearts forever, but the memory we have of him can never be taken from any of us.
