constitute a valuable contribution to those who continue in
owned company group.
His son, Dr. Pierpaolo, formerly Commercial Director Eise perpetuates today
memory of Joseph Piria driving the company, which his father, starting
that he liked to call "a simple idea," he devoted himself
the passion lives, growing up around him and generations of good
loyal employees and partners.
They wanted to honor him after his death, a tribute not rhetorical
nor fact, but overflowing with sincere love and gratitude:
"Many of us were little more than boys when they entered the farm
he founded and led until the end and it is that, under his leadership,
were trained and learned from him how to work.
Our loyalty is high in numbers: some company for
twenty, thirty and even over 40 years.
We who knew him daily, can testify that the
Knight was selfless and generous, and, as an employer, even
rightly demanding and strict.
Methodical and meticulous, first undertook, in the company also
on holidays until the last, you might say, until his last evening.
He loved the job, a job well done and required that each of us
involved in this.
It was orderly and demanded order, starting with our way of being and
appear.
True gentleman, was present and ready, with great discretion, when
some of us needed help, or accusing any problem
staff.
It is not easy rhetoric of opportunity, but I can testify that many of
We were not only a serious and reliable employer, but also a
wise father and teacher of life.
We were one of his constant thought.
Reached the age when the natural weariness brings more to want to pull the oars
boat, but he remained at his job, to organize at
plan to invest in their own, with enthusiasm and youthful spirit,
mainly because they worried about the future of the company, which was the
all our futures.
And we knew to be his first thought.
Therefore, when the sad farewell, we can not say that a
one word: "Thanks."
