I was very sorry to hear about the passing of Romeo. I met him while my grandfather Stan Loscko was staying at the Woodlands. My twin daughters and I were always greeted with such a warm smile by Romeo. He made them laugh and feel at ease. We certainly were very blessed to have known him.Our
thoughts and prayers are with your family.
