Dear Riccardo,

Many thanks for the exceptional service you provided as guide and interpreter during my recent trip to Trento and Tuenno, Italy.  After browsing Sal Romano’s website about Tuenno and corresponding with him about my trip, I am so happy that I used his referral for your services.  It was quite obvious that you have a passion for genealogy and linking people with their relatives.  We were pleased with your professionalism, impressed with your knowledge, and loved your personality.  Visiting a foreign country can be quite scary, especially when one does not speak the language.  However, my cousins and I felt very safe being around you and we truly enjoyed our trip. 

For more than 20 years, I had a dream of visiting the village in Italy where my grandmother, Maria Valentini, was born and raised.  As a child, I lived on a farm next door to my grandmother in the small town of Wapwallopen, Pennsylvania. In 1961, she went home to Tuenno, Italy to visit her family. That was my grandmother’s only trip home since her arrival at Ellis Island, New York, on October 20, 1911.  I still remember her telling me that one day I should go to her country to see the beautiful mountains and rolling hills.

After many years of research, I finally found the names of my relatives in Tuenno.  Through the help of your service, I was able to fulfill my dream and see where my grandmother was born and raised.  The highlight of my trip was meeting my long lost relatives and the surprise you gave me when I arrived in Trento, a copy of my grandmother’s baptism papers.  Again, thank you so much for the wonderful experience Riccardo, the cost was well worth the expense.

My wife and I recently had the opportunity to benefit from the accomplishments of Riccardo Bruno, whom we hired to investigate the genealogy of the Antonio Gasperetti family from Tuenno, Italy.

Mr. Bruno's research was thorough and his presentation of the material on hard copy and orally was complete and understandable.    Truly, it was our pleasure to be in the company of such a fine gentleman who has command of the English and Italian languages and who truly loves his work in genealogical research.   As a young, well groomed, personable man with integrity and a skilled finder of facts, we highly recommend Riccardo Bruno.

Dear Riccardo,
I can not ever thank you enough for helping me find my brother.  Our family is so thankful!  I had been trying on my own to find him for years and had almost given up until I heard about you.  You were able to locate records I could have never been able to do.  Within three months you found my brother.  You kept reassuring me that this would all have to be taken one step at a time and to be patient.  You were so understanding, kind, pleasant, trustworthy, efficient, respectable, knowledgeable and you have a great sense of humor.  

I have told many others about my story and how you helped me and I will continue to highly reccommend you to others.  You truely have a heart of gold to have the desire, the passion to help others.  I know you must feel greatly rewarded when you reunite families.  I hope to see you sometime in 2008 so I can give you the biggest hug ever!! I thank you from the bottom of my heart,
