Mr Dakos, I will always remember you for your kindness and generosity. Just to have known you was an honor. You were not a man of many words, but your actions showed how much you loved your family. Mrs. Dakos, Jenny, Dino and George, I am so sorry for the lose of such a wonderful husband, father, and human being. May God’s love shine upon him everyday.

Nono was very good to my family when I was growing up. When I moved back to New Hampshire as a young adult, he would come to the jail and ask the person on the desk to get Stevie for him. They would finally figure out he wanted me and would inquire if I owed money to the mob because there was this man waiting for me out in the lobby who identified himself as "The Godfather."

Cool or what?!!

I will love that man as long as I live.
