Ho conosciuto Franco Olivetti tanti anni fa, eravamo buon amici ed io molto più giovane di lui lo consideravo con grande rispetto e affetto. Persi ogni contatto con lui dopo la sua partenza per l'Australia, ora apprendo che non c'è più e ne sono molto dispiaciuto, un caro abbraccio a tutti. claudio.panzone@alice.it

We would like to take this opportunity to record our deep sorrow and heartfelt pain at the passing of our dear friend Franco Olivetti. Knowing Franco for the past two decades has been a privilege and a pleasure - he was one of nature's finest gentleman! He was an erudite, cultured and cultivated person, with a keen intellect and a sharp memory recall. He was a walking encyclopeadia on matters historical, political, art and current affairs. His interests were broad and his pursuits were endless - he was for ever "chasing" new ideas and concepts! He will be sorely missed by us and by all who had the pleasure of his friendship and company. MAY HE FOREVER REST IN PEACE Aliki & Tony Papadopoulos
