My condolences to the family, Sal was a dear friend and we shared many good times growing up in the neighborhood. We play baseball together, share our children’s good times with Ro and the boys as they grew up.
He will always be in my prayers.
May he rest in peace
Carmela Messina says
Sooo very sorry for your loss. Sal and Roe were very special to me and Joe. We go way back to our teenage years and spent a lot of time together. The most exciting time was when Sal caught Maris’ homer. That was great. And to share that time with him was fun. Sal was the happiest person in the world and sharing that experience with the baseball world was amazing. Sal u were one of a kind and will be missed. May he Rest In Peace and I’m sure mom was happy to see him. God bless. ❤️🙏❤️🙏

Sal was my daughter Alexa’s bus driver for a year (2011-2012). He took her back and forth from Brooklyn , to the Seton Foundation for the Disabled on Staten Island every day. My daughter has always needed a little extra care , as she has Down Syndrome, and Sal was the perfect guy for the job. I knew in the first minutes talking to him that this is a genuine good guy. MLB did well to have a guy like Sal catch Roger Maris’s ball (when spoke to me, could not speak highly enough about the goodness of Roger and the Maris family).
So sorry for your loss , God bless Sal and God bless Sal’s family.

Prayers to you my friend and all your family. Your dad can be with mom now and watch all those homers from Heaven. God Bless and rest in peace.
