I am shocked! Fabrizio was my friend and one of the nicest persons in modeling community I ever met. What a great loss this is! May he rest in peace.

Very sad news indeed. I had a conversation with him barely a couple days ago. 

 

He will be missed.

Too sad. My sympathy to his family and friends.

 

I never met him, but I've bought several of his kits. Always found him very obliging and helpful. The hobby is much poorer for his loss.

Sad news, a prayer and comfort for his family.

Very sad to hear this.  Fabrizio produced some really nice kits and conversions. I had emailed him not too long ago but did not hear back. Very nice fellow.  He will be missed.

 

RIP.
