Chi Chi, You leave a tremendous void in this great town. A void which will be long unfilled for many years. A soft spoken humble man who always spoke well of others. You left an indelible mark on your beloved Bristol Fire Department. The past few days have been extremely difficult for those who have known you for 50+ years, as well as those who've known you for only a year or less. We will always hold you and your memories in high regard.

To Chi-Chi's family, I hope that you all find solace and comfort in this difficult time, it was bittersweet to see Chi Chi surrounded by his family and friends in his home; as you all instilled the true meaning of family and friendship in his last days. Thanks Chi Chi for the laughs and fond memories.

-Rick

From: Louis J. "Chi-Chi" Cirillo, 85, Bristol
