If the kitchen is the heart of a home, Sal was the pulse. He was a phenomenal cook, and happiest when feeding family and friends. 

He loved the game of golf, and his sanctuary was the course regardless of the season or weather conditions.

Most of all, Sal was an incredibly loving husband and father. He had a specialty for taking care of others, and making everyone feel both at home and at their best. In the words of a longtime friend, “he served as a beacon for happiness, positive energy, friendship, and love.” We will miss his unwavering support, and most of all his compassionate, gentle heart.

A celebration of Sal’s life will take place in the spring of 2022, details to follow early next year."
