I am so sorry to hear that your dad passed away. I was just thinking about my aunt Lucille and you came to mind. God bless. Bruno BERTUCCi

Our family has so many wonderful memories of Sal, one of my Dad's (Mike Troy)dearest friends. They shared a friendship that lasted over 60 years, during which they traveled together from coast to coast and throughout the Caribbean. They taught us a lot about loyalty and love, and how to live a very rich live. We had the good fortune to live in Lemont and see a lot of Sal as he would take Gina to her Karate lesssons or tennis matches as she grew up. It was always a pleasure to see him, partly because he made you believe he was very glad to see you too. He had " a lot of nature," as my Dad would say. And while we know he is in a much better place now, in heaven with his old war buddies and dear family, we will miss him very much. Salut, Sal,we love you. The Troys
