Dear Steve, Anne, Vince and Phil,
I was so sorry to hear your news. Steve, your dad was a great man. I always enjoyed talking with him when he would come to a school event. He will be greatly missed but the memories he left behind will keep him in our hearts forever.
You and your family will be in our prayers. Mariann, Bob, Megan and Annie Reilly

Henry, Steve & Tom,
I would like to express my deepest sympathy on the passing of your father. I have nothing but fond memories of being a young boy coming to the southside with my dad to pick up minnows for our store. Your dad was always kind in my eyes. I would like to think that our fathers were not just competitors, but that they had a friendly rivalry of sorts. Old bait dealers are a diminishing breed. I hope that you continue to progress in this industry that our fathers laid the ground work for. You guys continue to be the Class of this industry. Our deepest sympathies.
The Vizzone Family
