I just found out about the passing of Sergio. I was shocked to find out. He was a great boss! I worked at Express Care from 2002-2004. My sympathy goes out to his loving family.

Mr. Tenuta was an honest person that placed truth before the Dollar. I had always respected that and will strive to reciprocate that principle unto others.

I just learned today of Sergio's death, and I was in shock when Ms. Tenuta told me. Please accept our deepest sympathies. I told my wife about this as soon as I got home from getting my oil changed today, and my wife Mariann sends her condolences too. I bring my cars to Sergio's shop regularly for oil and fluid changes, and I just learned of Sergio's death when his wife was in the shop today and she told me about it. I am so, so sorry, Sergio was such a nice man, and I started bringing my cars to his shop about four years ago. Being of Italian ancestry, and having been to Italy, I had told Sergio a bit about my family history and my cousins whom I still keep in touch with there. I am truly so sorry for your loss, Ms. Tenuta. Please accept our deepest condolences. Sincerely, Peter and Mariann Renardo

Serge truly was a good, decent and honest man. My sister Lois and I frequented Express Care where we experienced wonderful service and enjoyed a few good laughs over many years. He always listened to our problems and always had a smile. We will miss him deeply. God bless his family.

My daughter Nikki used to work for Sergio, he was a great man and boss. He was always there whenever I had any car questions and no matter how stupid my questions, he always took the time to help. God Bless his family, heaven does have another angel. He will be missed by many and live on in the hearts of those who loved him.
