Dear Ms. Ruffolo, Amelia, and Lisa,

My deepest sympathy to you. I know Adriana will be greatly missed. She

was such a beautiful person, with so much to offer this world. Her charm, her witty sense of humor, her strength, intelligence, her style, her determination, and her love for her family... were so very admirable. I always looked up to Adrian. She inspired me greatly. I am deeply saddened by her passing, but I know she's in heaven with the rest of God's angels.
