Dear Madeline and Family…I was so  very sad to hear of Sal’s passing and send heartfelt condolences .  I am so  thrilled that after all these years you were able to find me and we reconnected with so many special memories of our friendship that began through your beloved Sal and my beloved Alex who is  gone now 11 years July 2025  . We are both blessed with precious children and grandchildren that are part of them which we hold in our hearts forever.. Many blessings and love to you all . 

My condolences to the Raiti family and their friends. I subscribe to Joe’s YouTube and Instagram channels and I love the content he makes. I can see the passion and pride in Joe’s work, and to know his dad inspired him is a testament to Sal’s legacy.  Joe is a stand up guy.  Intelligent, funny, charismatic, caring, hard working and humble; all characteristics I’m sure he got from his parents.  

May Sal’s spirit be free, and may those who knew and loved him have warm and happy memories.  

My condolences to The Raiti family and all other friends of Sal. I've never met Joe or Lori, but I am a follower of their YouTube channel. Sal let it be known besides fixing cars and serving in the Air Force, you and Madeline created an excellent human, from a teacher, teaching and guiding with books to a teacher in the digital age. Joe is a humble human.
