Frantonio's family in need of funeral support

Donation protected
My name is Renee, and it is with a heavy heart that we are asking for your donations and prayers for local Barrington business owners Patti and Franco Bruno, whose son Joe Bruno passed away unexpectedly this past week.

This close-knit family is devastated, and trying to balance keeping their business afloat, covering funeral expenses and allowing their family much-needed time to grieve. The Bruno's, who own Frantonio's Italian Deli & Cafe in Barrington, have been part of the community for 28 years, always offering up authentic food with a smile and a warm welcome. Anyone who knew Joe will recall how he could light up a room with his smile. The family members themselves are the primary staff - and have also had a significant financial hardship to the business as they needed to close for a week. The Bruno Family has created a place where strangers are welcomed as family, a retreat where we can laugh and enjoy each other's company despite any hardships we might be going through. Let's show our appreciation for their relentless love and hospitality by supporting them through this challenging time.
