He was honored by friends, family and business associates recently at a dinner and roast at the Lafayette Park Hotel.
"It was outstanding," said Aiello, who was humbled by all the adoration, "one of the best nights of my life, lots of fun." His kids and wife reflected on what a great guy he is and Jay Lifson, executive director of the Chamber of Commerce had a wacky presentation of photos from when Aiello served in the Navy on the U.S.S. Towers. "It was a real honor," he added.
Aiello is married to wife and business partner Jennifer, and is the proud dad of Brooke, 18, and Brady, 16. The couple have owned and operated Pinnacle Apparel and Promotions since 2000 in Lafayette; the company sources and produces branded merchandise. He's been an active member of the community, busy as a coach of various sports over the years and has volunteered to be the entertainment chair of the Lafayette Art and Wine Festival for the last decade.
