Carmelo “Chonka” was a phenomenal child, his character was unique in every way and his smile was always shining. He brightened any room as soon as he walked in, as the angel he was.
His innocence was sweet, his laugh was contagious, and his warm, big, strong hugs were everything anyone ever needed in a gloomy day. His LOVE was pure, as he himself was pure love. It is with a heavy heart, that our families welcome you to celebrate his life.
