Sal, a Son, Brother and and most importantly, a Father...

Sal was born on April 11, 1984, two months premature. As my sister-in-law stated after his passing ""he came into this world early and left early."" Sal was an absolute beautiful child with a heart of gold. Sal was truly an old soul."" If you met Sal once, you were his friend forever.

These next few words are borrowed from Sal's brother Vincent. ""There were so many layers to Sal. At his very core, he was fiercely loyal, loving, sensitive, and moral. To coax a real smile from Sal was the greatest victory, but how beautiful it was!! Sal touched so many people during his life. Anybody who had met Sal knew that you couldn't do anything but love him"".

Sal gave us one of the most precious gifts that anyone could give, his beautiful son. Baby Sal is a piece of his dad that will continue to shine his light and give his love to everyone around him, for the rest of his life.

Nothing is going to bring my son back; I will carry him in my heart forever and I will keep his memory alive ~ all for the love of a boy who quietly gave so much love.
