Some of you might know me by my nickname Olli. Sal has been my best friend since 10th grade back in northern Virginia. He passed away last week, leaving behind his two boys, Tommy and Ben, aged 10 & 7, and their mother, Sarah to raise them alone.
Sal was a beloved ‘father, friend and bartender. He was a legend in the Washington bar and culinary scene of the 2000s, well known for his years of service proving laughter and sage-like wisdom to DCs wayward at establishments such as the Metro Café, Marx Café, Bardeo and CityZen in the Mandrian Hotel. In recent years, Sal relocated to St. Louis and spent much of his corona-related unemployment providing food for the homeless. Sadly, Sal's health took a downturn during the pandemic, and he left this world last week.
Many of the countless people he has touched have asked what they can do to help, and I know that he would want nothing more than the best for his boys. All donations will be received directly by Sarah.
Sal, you will be deeply missed.
