Joe Cannella wrote a sympathy message

“To the Family of Nello Celletti. My family sends its deepest sympathy and prayers to all of you. What a guy! Many great childhood memories from St. Anthony's, Boylan, card games, the Body shops and of course the clubs. Hard working, funny, personable, are just a few of his traits that made him special. It didn't matter if you had seen him yesterday or several years ago, he made you feel like you were the most important person in the room when he greeted you. RIP my fiend. Joe and Sue Cannella”
