My Aunt will always hold a special place in my heart. She was empathetic and loved to help others including her family. I will always cherish my memories of times with her as a young child and adult. She was a strong lady in many ways. Although she is gone she will always remain in my heart.

My aunt was always there to help others. She led with her heart and loved nothing better than to be with family. Her lemon cookies were the best. She had a great sense of humor and a contagious laugh. She was independent up until a couple of years ago and I am proud of her for that. I will miss her always. May the Lords light guide her forever.

I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. Their love leaves an indelible imprint in our memories. We find comfort in knowing that our lives have been enriched by having shared their love. My deepest condolences to the Capablo family. My late mother, Marie, and Carmella were good friends from Taylor Street (Chicago). Carmella and I both worked for Western Electric years ago.
