I love you Wally! Words can’t express how much I miss you. You have and will always live in my heart and memories.
My heart is broken. You’re very missed already. I love you so much and I really enjoyed our recent conversations. I will dearly hold you in my heart and keep your memories alive.
Aldo was a really good friend ,I worked with him for 22 years. We talked a lot about life and our future in heaven. He will be greatly missed.
David is going to be lost without you, Aldo. You will be greatly missed. Until we meet again, friend.
My best buddy Ill always remember passing notes in Church with you at the church of Nazarene on how bored we was and then getting in trouble with our moms for horsing around and laughing. Many memories I will always have, Rest in peace and prayers for your family. Love ya and see you on the other side my friend!!

Sorry for your loss. I worked with Aldo Sr. back in the Qcy Stg. and Wetterau days.
Great man. I haven’t spoken to him in years, but he had always been respectful and honest. I am so sorry I will not be able to make the celebration of life- I send my condolences- wish I could be there.
I love you Aldo, very much.
Epitaph
When I die
Give what’s left of me away
To children
And old men that wait to die.
And if you need to cry,
Cry for your brother
Walking the street beside you.
And when you need me,
Put your arms
Around anyone
And give them
What you need to give to me.
I want to leave you something,
Something better
Than words
Or Sounds.
Look for me
In the people I’ve known
Or loved,
And if you cannot give me away,
At least let me live on your eyes
And not on your mind.
You can love me most
By letting
hands touch hands,
By letting
Bodies touch bodies,
And by letting go
Of children
That need to be free.
Love doesn’t die,
People do.
So, when all that’s left of me
Is love,
Give me away.
I’ll see you at home
In the earth.
