I am heartbroken to find out that Mr. Fortunato has passed away. I so rarely get to State College anymore, and I happened to be listening to his CD that he gave me (I Love A Piano). I thought I'd look online to see if there was anything about other CDs, or info on him, and came across his obituary. He was always Pa Fortunato, and my daughter still remembers him showing her a puppet or marionette (something like that) that he showed to her when we were visiting one time. Ma and Pa Fortunato were very special to me, and I will miss him terribly, just as I miss her. I will cherish this CD even more now. And I will miss his singing and music. He was so special, and loving and caring.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I don't even know if you'll see this at this point, but I just felt like I wanted you to know how special he was, and how much he'll be missed. Take comfort in knowing he touched so many people's lives and lit up there hearts in so many ways. ... Now I have to work through my broken heart, but I'll have his music to help me through. God Bless you all, and thanks for sharing him with me and so many others.
