"I MADE YOU LAUGH"

Yesterday my family and I suffered a great loss when my Dad who had been battling liver cancer and liver disease passed away. To know him was to know a great man who was blessed with the ability to make anyone and everyone laugh. To be around him was truly a joy. Dad you made me a man. What you taught me will live forever in my heart, along with all the amazing memories we shared. Rest in ever-lasting peace. I Love You!

Uncle Carm, you will be greatly missed. As we all grew older, I did not see you as much as I used to, but I have fond memories of spending every weekend at your house, and later at the cafe. You were a great man who always could light up a room, rest in peace.

We've known Carmen for many years. Our first meeting was when my wife worked with Carmen at Shields Real Estate. I came to know him through my wife. We often dined at Carmen's Cafe. He was a truly great man. He always had a kind word and a gentle temperment. He'll truly be missed. We were blessed to have known him.

Uncle Carm, I will always treasure the memories our entire family had together especially Thanksgiving. You had the unique ability to make everyone around you laugh. I will particularly miss all of our talks about Philadelphia sports and I know each time the Eagles, Phillies, and Sixers win you will be looking down with a big smile on your face. We Love and miss you! John & Lauren

You will always have me smiling at the count of three.... But now I am smiling just because I know that you have a beautiful place in heaven and I know you are watching over everyone including me. Until we meet again my friend you will be loved and missed dearly. and I will always cherish the times at Carm's Cafe where you taught me to make the best pizza ever.
