Helen, I was so shocked to find Camillo's obituary in the online postings. I was looking for my next door neighbor's obit when I saw his. I am so very sorry for you and the girls. It is very hard to lose the love of your life. I pray that the Lord will wrap his arms of love and comfort around you all and give you peace. Please know that I am thinking of you and keeping you in my prayers. I have always thought of you as a wonderful friend and thank you for being my friend and mentor. Again, I am very , very sorry for your loss.

Camillo and I got to know each other through years of traveling for CHF.
We had many business and equally family conversations during our trips.
From those hours of discussion, I felt his sincerity in dedication to his family, friends and associates.
After years of travel I had the good fortune of working directly for him.
His compassion and people centric management style is an inspiration to me.
One of our mutual passions is great food, especially good Italian bread.
I thank him for all the great conversation during our many trips to the buffet in China.
I will miss him. My deepest sympathy to all who grieve for this special man.

I was honored and blessed to have worked with Camillo for the past 18 years. He was much more than my boss, mentor and Finance partner. He was one of my best friends, and in many ways was a father figure to me. Whenever I needed a lift, he was always there for me, and his support for me and my family was unwavering.

He was always a true gentleman, and was a friend to everyone. He treated all with respect, and made everyone feel important. His impact on the lives of others was enormous, and he made me a better person and man.

We both shared a passion for Golf, and we played a lot of Golf together along with my son, Brian, over the years. I have great memories of our trip to Scotland, and will always remember Camillo's great par on the 18th hole on The Old Course at St Andrews. We all walked off of that historical course with such amazing happiness.

The world has lost a great man and friend to everyone. I cannot begin to express the love I have for Camillo in this post, and I will miss him greatly.

Family was always the center of Camillo's life, and my thoughts and prayers at this difficult time are with Helen, Alice, Cindy, and his entire family.

RIP My Friend.

I was honored, privileged and blessed to have worked with Camillo over the past 18 years at CHF. He was much more than my boss, mentor, and finance partner. He was one of my best friends and in many ways was a father figure to me. No matter what was going on in my life he always shared his wisdom with me that somehow made everything all right. He treated everyone with respect, made everyone feel important, and would always start his day in the office by walking around and saying hello to everyone. His impact on my life was huge, and he made me a better person and man.

We shared a passion in the game of golf and we would frequently try to play a quick 9 holes after work when he was in the Charlotte Office. Camillo and his nephew, Anthony, joined my son and me on a dream golf vacation to Scotland three years ago. And, while his golf game wasn't what it once was, I will never forget his par on the 18th green at the Old Course at St. Andrews and the amazing feeling that we all shared walking off that historic course.

My heart has been breaking for the past few weeks knowing that his time in this world was coming to an end. I cannot begin to express in this post my love for Camillo, and how much I will miss him. The world has lost a great man and a friend to everyone.

RIP my dear friend.

I worked for Camillo as VP IT / CIO for his entire 18 yrs with CHF. Camillo would tell me how his family thought it funny that he was responsible for IT considering he wasn't very strong with computers. That never stopped me from seeking his advice and input on important matters. What you do in the first place is more important than how you do it. Camillo was always so grounded in doing the right thing in business and by people. I felt I was always able to come to the best decisions with his help. I am very grateful that I got to tell him this on the last day I saw him before he retired. It seemed to mean a lot to him. I have missed him professionally ever since he retired. I will always think about Camillo, and when I have problems to solve, I will think first about doing the right thing by people as Camillo always did.
My sincerest sympathies to Camillo's family and friends. He will be greatly missed but we are all better people having known him.

So sorry to hear of Camillo's passing. He was a colleague, friend and mentor. I miss his busting of chops (giving and getting), his head shakes, his insight, patience, and the occasional flash of anger or laughter (he was Italian after all). Godspeed old friend - sorry to lose you so soon. Hope you are hitting them straight up there.

I have been deeply saddened and I feel a tremendous loss since hearing of the passing of Camillo. i was fortunate to have him as a friend and work with him for 17 years at CHF. We were sure to talk each day we were in the office to discuss our daily agendas for both work and personal events. No matter how difficult a challenge could be, he had the talent to put it into a realistic perspective. He was truly the most inspirational person I knew, and helped to make my world a better place. In this difficult time, my prayers are for him and his family. !

Camillo will always hold a special place in my heart. Not only was he my boss, he was my dear friend. The first time this southern girl made a trip to NY City, he greeted me at the curb, carried my luggage in the office and made positively sure I made it safe and sound to my hotel that evening. For 18 years, he looked after me like I was part of his family. I’m going to miss him more than words can say, and I will definitely miss getting to hear stories about Samantha and Cole. My sincere thoughts go out to the entire family.

Spencer, Joan and I are deeply saddened by the loss of our colleague (and most importantly, dear friend) Camillo.

He was an integral part of our business and our lives, not only as our capable CFO for almost 20 years but also as a remarkably kind and supportive confidant to all who knew him.

Since last week, many of our former employees and colleagues have written or called to say how much he meant to them. It was Camillo who walked the floor early every morning to say hello, check in with everyone and to offer counsel.

He really was one of a kind. They say no one is irreplaceable. "They" are wrong. There will never be another Camillo. I personally have valued his participation as my partner in creating a family centered business that left everyone feeling an important part in their role and in the future of our company. I treasured him.

On a personal level, he was the greatest friend who was taken from all of us at much too young an age. May God Bless him. We will always keep him in our prayers.

Camillo was truly a very sincere person, as vendor/partner of the CHF, we visited the office couple times a year for the last 15 years, whenever we met at the CHF office, he could greeted us by name and catch up with us gracefully, took very considerated approach to support the needs. We missed Camillo since his retirement from CHF over the past year. We are so sorry! God bless you all!

You are always in our memories.

One of the nicest guys anyone would ever meet. A true Rodman Street boy. Along with Larry Dugan and Bobby Fischer, enjoyed many good times and laughs. Who can forget caddying at Bidermann Golf Club carrying the bags of some the richest and eccentric people we'd ever meet, the endless parade of characters going into or hanging out at the corner of Joe's Store or the Monday golf outings at Greenhill or Bidermann golf courses? So many memories and our our boy, Camillo, enriched them all. My dear friend, I can't make it up to pay my last respects but you will be in mine and so many hearts of those you touched. Rest in the arms of the Lord, buddy. Bruce

Oh I have such fond memories growing up and spending time at the Faraone house. I always used to joke with you Mr. Faraone about how on earth you could put up with Cindy's antics. It took a special man indeed - patience, strength and a whole lot of head shaking. You were a true example of a gentleman, always willing to do for others and going out of your way to meet the needs of others. You used to take Cindy and I to practice driving before we got our licenses. Brave man for sure. The world needs more men like you. You will be dearly missed but may your gentle spirit, lending hand and open heart be an example for others. Much love. Renee Kugit

I remember when Camille 1st moved to rodman Street he didn't speak much English and being kids we would take advantage of him like having him go into joes store and ordering stuff and telling him this is American everything is free then watching joe chase him down the street. But it didn't take Camille long to become one of the best that's ever come out of rodman street he made us proud. We'll miss him.
