To the DeRango Family,

I know how hard it is to lose a family member. It's at times like this that we have to remember the fun times. Sitting out in front during the summer, the block parties, remember the happiness that he brought into everyones life with his smile and his wit. May God grant him his peace and rest till we all meet again.

Guv, Your "mean Gene" spirit will be deeply missed. I pray to God you are not suffering anymore. You taught me how to be tough, and how to be a man. I will never forget you, and will always think of you. May you rest in peace and happiness. I Love You Always Gramps!! Nigall

To the entire DeRango Family -

My prayers and sympathy are with you at the death of your beloved Gene. I know him only through his three grandchildren, Nick, Vanessa, and Franky. In knowing them, I am sure Gene was a truly remarkable and loving human being. Also, at this time of war, I am grateful for his service to our country. May he rest in peace.
