Gio met friends in three schools, one in Rome and two in New York; he was able to attend a few months and yet the friends
he met remember him
"always cheerful and with a great desire to play",
always ready to "share his games";
when Gio was at school "the class was always joyful" (Valentino).  
"We have never seen him sad" (Josephine); 
"was always genuinely good, always kind to others "(Francesco).
