My husband and I have visited Tenuta's restaurant regularly and Steven almost always waited on us. Although we didn't know him personally, we were always impressed with his service, polite manners and apparent kindness! He impressed us. We were so sorry to read of his death! When my mother passed away, someone wrote: "when someone you love becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure". Hopefully, your treasured memories will keep you strong during this sad time!

My deepest sympathy to the Pierangeli family. Even though I didn't know Stevie as a young man, but I knew him as a young child. Stevie always did something funny to make me laugh, every time I baby sat him. Stevie left me with a lot of funny memories with his charming personality and will be truly missed.
Raymond & Judith DeVries Clearwater, Florida January 27, 2012
Our sincerest condolences to you and the family. We will surely miss seeing his smilely face and having conversations as we dined at our favorite pizza restaurant. We would like to have talked to you personally but are in Florida until May. May God bless you all.

I first would like to say how very sorry I am for your loss. My thoughts and prays are going out to your family. Steve is a great guy. I don't think I could say enough good about him. Steve and I were in school together from elementary school at Forest Park through High School at Bradford. We kept in touch over the years a little bit but not nearly as much as I wish we would have. I saw him a lot at Tenuta's and everytime I came in there he had a smile on his face and he asked me how I was doing and was just very nice and caring. Even though we didn't really keep in touch after high school, he never pretended not to know me when I came in but treated me like I was one of his friends. Again, I am truly sorry for your loss and I cannot imangine what you are going through but it's something that no one should ever have to go through. He will be greatly missed.
Mat,Efrain,Kari & Ava January 26, 2012
For many years we knew Steve from Tenuta's. He always had a smile and kept his cool when the place would be crazy. He will be missed by so many that he touched. We are so sorry for your loss- Gone too Soon.

I don't know where to even begin to express the sorrow we have for your family.

Pull strength from the memories and love shared with Steve and let it bring peace to your hearts in the days ahead.

Mark Jarvis January 24, 2012
I would like to send my condolences to Dean, Diane, Dino and the rest of his entire family and friends. He will be forever missed but never forgotten. Words can't express how wonderful a friend Steve was. I have so many fond memories of Steve from watching football games, movies and television shows with him. He made work seem not so much like work because he would always light up a room. More important than that he was always their for me when I needed a friend. Every time your sad and miss him just think of the memories you shared with him. I know for certain he will bring a smile to your face.
Barbara Halligan January 24, 2012
I cannot put into words the sorrow I feel about the passing of your wonderful son. He would light up a room when he entered. I remember him and billy playing baseball together and the talks we had Dianne. I will keep your family close to my heart as you struggle with this tragedy.
