Maria Popoli wrote a sympathy message

“My husband & I worked with Hugh & we started talking about him today on the patio. We really enjoyed his company & stories that started the same way then never ended the same. He was kind but a bit bombastic yet so endearing. Thank you for entertaining us, Hugh. We remember you fondly. Maria & Robert Popoli”
