MY THOUGHTS FOR DR. NUCCIO Dear Family, What more could I say that was not said in the obit notice so beautifully describing your father. I will try to give you my thoughts and try not to make it too long. In the years that Lou Siringo and I had together; when we were both widowed and married.:) I had the pleasure of being welcomed into your wonderful family. "Mim," as he was usually referred to (short for Dominick) were best friends that went back for many years. Your father and mother instilled their love and compassion for family life to all their chtldren.as well as to each other. They were two very special people and will never be forgotten by all who were honored to be called their friends.and will sorely be missed. I have wonderful and happy memories of the times we visited their home in Rome and enjoyed the time we were together at family gatherings at their summer retreat and have photos that Lou took, as usual, when we came to Rome in the summertime from Florida where we retired to beat the cold weather, including that fabulotd'50th wedding anniversary party and enjoyed Yolanda's singing as that was her passion. Her daughter, Liz was also blessed with a beautiful voice)inherited from her mom, as well as all of their children. Your dad never spoke about all he did when he was in the service and it surprised me to learn when I read about all he accomplished during the war. I guess he never needed that "pat on the back" like some people seem to need. He did what he wanted to do without all the accolades. I guess he spoke about the war days with Lou, but that would be something he shared with his best friend who was also in the war zones. Mim was the most loving and compassionate man Lou and I were privileged to have known and I will close tbisletter with my sincere condolences to this family and know that love is the only reality we need for one another. May God grant you peace and know that your many fond and happy memories of this special and precious soul, your loving father, will always be with you. With all my love and blessings to all, Beverly Siringo
