Steve, very sorry to hear about your dad. Didn't realize the connection as I grew up in Lyncourt and played little league for Onondaga Pottery, the forerunner of Syracuse China. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Bob & Judy Daino
Steve, Sorry for your loss! Doug Russell
Dear Pat, Maggie,Mrs. Volza,Steve, Patty, Mikey, and wonderful Volza family,
From the moment I met the Volza family, there is not a time that I did not feel welcomed in their home. They treated me like family. One memory I will always have of Mr. Volza is that smile on his face...it was always there. Many times I would drive by the house and on the spur of the moment, unannounced, I would ring the doorbell and Mr. Volza would answer with a smile and a hug and say...'Cheryl, come on it!!" There Mrs. Volza would be ...always in the kitchen...and I would always be welcomed with open arms.First thing they would ask is how my parents were, and be sincerely interested in everything that I had to say.I have so many memories...too many to share.
The Volza family is one of the sweetest families I have ever known.It is an honor to know them but more than that...an honor to call them my friends. I love you guys...always will.

Dear Volza Family and friends; 7/15/12
I always smiled when i saw his face; he always had a word of encouragement for me and something nice to say when i drove up the driveway on my bicycle, oh so many years ago.
When seeing his picture as above, one can just see he was a caring man, a man who had influenced my life by having the good fortune of knowing him.
A harder or more dedicated worker i cannot recall. He was always busy when i came by, but stopped to share a story or a good thought, as i waited to see Pat.
Whenever i drive by his home in Lyncourt, there is not a time i do not think of the experiences of talking with "Mr. Volza", and the goodness he brought to people. I have and shall continue to remember him always...and I will always be thankful that i knew him and that he had taken the time to spend with me.
My thoughts and prayers are with you...
Ron Rocco, Always a Lyncourter, but residing in Cortland, New York

Mr. Volza was as kind and generous a man as I have ever known. I am proud to be able to say he was family; to me, if you eat 15 or more Thanksgiving dinners with someone, they're family. We'll miss you, Mr Volza. God bless Mrs. Volza. -- Mary Beth Casey
