Vito was a kind man and will be missed by our family. My children have fond memories of being invited to his vacation home and digging up plastic dinosaurs he had buried on the beach for them. He always had a way to make others smile and we will miss his smile. Rest well, Friend.

I will always treasure memories with Vito forever in my heart. I find comfort in knowing I now have another angel watching over me. He will be greatly missed.

Vito will always be in my thoughts. As a young engineer with the City of Chicago, he took me under his wing and taught me everything that I know. He was a friend to both me and my family, and he will always be in our thoughts and prayers.
