Capone Riccardo

2016 - 2023

Capone , Our baby boy, big guy, big baby,lil boy. you went by so many different nicknames but most people knew you as Capone. You came into our lives about 8 years ago as a small little guy and grew up into such a big handsome gentle giant. You watched me move out on my own, get engaged to mama and marry her. She got you for me as a surprise gift for my birthday and I will never forget the first day I came to see you. I fell right in love with you and it was all history from there. We brought you everywhere and anywhere we went, as you got bigger and bigger it was harder to sneak you into stores, but we did it anyways. The compliments you got everywhere you went on how beautiful you were never got old.

Going on bike rides on the trails and to the bridge over the rivine was probably your FAVOURITE path to take. You loved going on rides in the county to go get fresh produce at local stands. You especially loved your super long walks with Buddy and Nonna, The excitement you got when they came over was so pure and awesome to see. YOU LOVED WHEN GRANDPA STAYED WITH YOU WHEN WE LEFT ON TRIPS, ALWAYS MAKING SURE YOU WERE NEVER LEFT ALONE. I know you loved when we had get togethers or parties because you loved greeting people at the door EVERY TIME someone new came over. You were an awesome host at the parties too, steady making your rounds saying hello to everyone trying to get a pet and a snack. Those who met you know how sweet, gentle and well behaved you were. thank you so much for being a big brother to Massimo, he loved every second he spent with you, you made it your top priority to protect and guard him wherever he went and it showed. YOU WERE HERE TO WELCOME MASSIMO WHEN HE CAME HOME FOR THE FIRST TIME and became the best of friends. you made us all feel so safe when you were around.

I am so honoured to have called you mine , you mean the world to me biggie and certainly will never be forgotten. One of the hardest things was saying bye to you yesterday but it was for the best. you are free from any pain and suffering and knowing that makes it a little easier.
Thank you for being the best boy ever , you are such a good boy!
Until we meet again Capone , I love you forever and always
