Dear Alaggio family,
The Roccaro family were very saddened to learn of Artie's passing. We have many fond memories of the Alaggio family starting from OLL and going to Saw Creek. A special memory of mine: Artie & Dolores helped me when my friends and I got into a car accident on Rte 209. My friends & I invited Artie & Dolores over for some fun & card games. All we did was laugh. I'll never forget the generosity & warmth of these wonderful people.
Love the Roccaro's
