So sorry for your loss. My Mom (Rose Freda) and your Mom were first cousins and close back in the day. I remember seeing her and your Dad at Pascente gatherings. She was such a sweet person. May your happy memories keep her alive in your hearts and may the thoughts and prayers of family and friends help you cope at this difficult time. My deepest sympathies to all.
