My life was blessed when Zeno married my sister Darlene. He was a wonderful man. I loved his laugh and he made all family get togethers fun. Can't imagine growing up without him. He always had impeccable taste in his cars. He was a "class act"! He and Darlene also had beautiful and intelligent children. I am sorry for your loss and was privileged to know him. RIP Zeno!!! That card game in Heaven keeps getting better.
