Our condolences go out to your family with the loss of Mr. Strano.  We were fortunate to have met him when my Dad was working in the tomato industry.  We enjoyed his company at numerous dinners, and got to fish with him on several occasions.  We always loved his laughter, his jokes, and his happy spirit.  He will be missed.

Vito was a strong hardworking man with quick wit, a compassionate heart, who adored his wife Loraine and loved his family dearly.   He was a force to be reckoned with in the south dade farming community and was highly respected throughout the community.  He was one of a kind and will be eternally missed and remembered…!

Dear Lorene and Strano Family of nieces, nephews, and cousins,

My deepest condolences.  This is a profound loss to the whole community. 
I best remember Vito running from field to field in his truck and being  such a fireball of energy directing all the Tomato Packers' crew, when the packing house and all the tomatoes were at their height of production. Great vision for what could become of the tomatoe fields. Seeing the future of Florida City so clearly.   

I shall plant a Vito Stano memorial Seagrass Meadow in Central Biscayne Bay as a remembrance of the energy you put into the fields. your Vito Strano  Meadow will  bring  back fish , and crabs, and shrimp to the Bay. 

You will be missed as a pillar of Florida City, but St. Peter probably will enjoy your jokes.
