2010: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, MR. AND MRS RICK DELORENZO!

The young fella you see in the top photos is from Rick DeLorenzo Junior, who has taken over the tradition of turning out those extra delicious and quite unique DeLorenzo tomato pies. Rick has taken a well-deserved retirement with his lovely wife shown in the accompanying photo, also courtesy of "young Rick." We all wish you both a very happy and healthy retirement. My dear wife Judy said she will miss calling on a Friday afternoon to order, and being greeted with Rick's ever present Cary Grant type greeting, "Joody, Joody."

Hey Tom: What a great photo of two great and wonderful people. I'm sitting here smiling at how well they look. Not much different from an Easter Sunday 60 years ago when these two kids, joined me and my date Marie for the Easter stroll along the boardwalk in Atlantic City. Rick and I were Jr.4 classmates, and if anyone has a 1948 Argus yearbook, I defy them to tell the difference between Rick and I in the Track team picture. He of course Italian, and me a Polish kid from South Trenton look like identical twins. A wonderful family, who deserve all the best. Regards Mike Kuzma of Virginia

Rick DeLorenzo defines class. His example of hard work, dedication to one's profession, and discipline are traits that those of us who were fortunate enough to work for him and his son try to carry forward in our daily lives. Rick DeLorenzo is the man.
