BLASE TOFFOLO
85th BIRTHDAY
From the Italian Alps to
Altoona, PA to Ft. Hood, TX,
to Pittsburgh, BLASE
TOFFOLO of Brookline
recently celebrated his 85th
birthday with many friends
at Rico's Restaurant. Blase
retired after 45 years as a
master bricklayer from BAC
Local #9. From a little town
with majestic mountains
where Primo Carnera
came... a "war" boy.
Traveled to the USA to make
a future for yourself.
Although you left your native
land, you never forgot where
you came from. We are
proud of your
accomplishments and
achievements. Like many
before and after your
arrival... you were taught
through the school of hard
knocks. Work. Save. Be
honest. Tell the truth.
Quitting is NOT an option.
You taught us to do good
and stay out of trouble.
Through the good times and
bad, you were a provider to
the family and always kept
your Catholic faith. Family,
tradition, and self-reliance
are your values.
Viva friuli & cento anni!
With love, your son and
daughter-in-law, Robert and Lisa
