Our deepest condolences on the loss of Mr. Repta. He was always nice to the Alagna boys (as aggrevating as we were)and will be missed. He certainly did well in raising such a fine family, along with Mrs. Repta.
May he rest in peace.

My wife and I would like to extend our condolences on the loss of your father, Kenny. He was a good friend and co-worker who worked with me for the last 23 years. Both my wife and I enjoyed his company at the many Expo parties, weddings etc. We will surely miss him. We are sorry we will not be able to attend the viewing as we will be out of town. Take comfort in knowing that he is in a better place and has found peace.
