U were always so sharp in those accessories and when I close my eyes that’s how I will always remember you:) You were such a kind soul and very funny..a non stop talker and welcomed everyone:) say Hi to all that we miss in Heaven but send a huge hug to my dad and Nonna Orienta:)

Where do we start…. so many memories as a child & adult- wonderful visits with our amazing Zio and Zia and family in their beautiful home, which always received us with laughter, love and warmest hugs.
Larger than life personality- Zio, your quick wit, humour, kindness and love that you always demonstrated will live with us forever.
One of my favourite memories is sitting at the table with you at breakfast (and who can forget the lengthy discussions and eating of the brownberry bread!!) lunch and dinner- and simply chatting together and laughing- talking about food- your garden and life in general- priceless memories.
You were such a positive force in our lives- and the lessons shared will live with us forever. As I sit here reflecting on the memories and time spent with you- the tears easily come, but the happiness and pride of having such an amazing Zio like you- swells my heart; you were, and always will be, one of the most significant and positive blessings in my life.
I read this quote- which says it best….”When someone you love becomes a memory….. that memory becomes a treasure”….. thank you Zio-for now being my treasure! I will love you to infinity Zio, as will Kirk – Felicia and Mikaela (their Tatone!)

I am so blessed to have such a beautiful family, an extended family that was always so welcoming and fun to be around! Coming to Milwaukee for many wonderful occassions reminded me of that. Zio Rosario you were the kindest giving person. A big teddy bear 🙂 Positive in your energy, full of laughter and great spirit. I remember all the late night laughs and mishaps in the middle of the night when staying in your house with Nonna Orienta and other family from Canada. It has stayed with me and I am grateful to have these memories. Rest in peace we’ll see you around and while you’re up there please give your sister a big fat kiss from Orienta junior

What can I say Zio Rosario you will surely be missed. Your hugs and well wishes to everyone that visited you. Your passion for your garden and life. You always wanted to be active and go for a walk even though you had some limitations but that didn’t stop you. Walking around your neighborhood saying hello to your neighbors as you walked around. Sitting in your kitchen talking about the present and the past and silently observing how in love your were with your wife and how the two of you sat together in separate chairs but still close together to watch the evening news. Love was always felt.., when you said your goodbyes when you visited us in Canada or when we visited you in Milwaukee. Your spirit, passion, humor and greatness will always be remembered and held close to my heart.
