In every story you told I could feel the love and admiration you have for your Father. Big Lou was truly one of a kind, the light of your life, a man of courage and intergrity. He will be missed by many. I hope you can take some comfort in knowing His spirit will live on in you and the many memories in your heart.
God bless you and your family in your time of loss
Love your friend

Dear Tomasino Family,

I was very sorry to hear about your loss. I remember only really fun times at your house and with all of you when we were little. Coincidentally, I was just thinking about your family and wondering where and how all of you are last week and then I got the call today about your Dad. I am so very sorry...
I am sure Mr. T will be missed by all of you and I will say a prayer that your grief is shortened by your good memories of him.

With my sympathy,

Shirley (Ross) Lacko

You showed us all by your example what it means to be a man. Your legacy will be all the loving memories and the lessons you taught every one of us- the last one was what the true meaning of courage is.
I love you Dad.

Dear Daddy aka (My Papa),

You will never know how much you meant to me, but then again I told you every time I saw you! You were my best friend, my Papa, my heart, but most of all you were the BEST Dad a girl could ask for. You were there for me always, every step of my life, just as when I was old enough, I was there to take care of you. What a team we were....
When you were in the rehab center, I looked forward to getting there to be with you, just as your eyes lit up when I came. You are one a kind Dad, truly amazing in every step of your life. You will ALWAYS remain in my mind, but most of all in my heart.
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH AND WILL MISS YOU TERRIBLY!

Love your baby!
