     WHEREAS, In adition to his wife and children, Mr. Trebisacci was the very proud

grandfather of Luke and Giovanna Trebisacci, Brianna and Nate Klein, and Anastasica Riordan,

the uncle of many nieces and nephews, and the caretaker and best friend of his faithful canine,

Sally; and

     WHEREAS, Born in Westerly, Mr. Trebisacci, fondly known as ""Junie" to his family

and friends, was the son of the late Antonio and Nellie Trebisacci, Sr., and the brother of the late

Louis, David, John Sr., Salvatore, and Josephine Christina; and

     WHEREAS, Mr. Trebisacci was a graduate of Westerly High School and had been

a pitcher in the Men's Softball League; and

     WHEREAS, Antonio Trebisacci was "known by many and loved by all." He will be

was blessed with an adoring family and many, many friends and he will be dearly missed; now,

therefore be it

     RESOLVED, That this Senate of the State of Rhode Island hereby extends deepest

condolences on the passing of Antonio P. Trebisacci, Jr.; and be it further
