There was an obvious Love that Auntie Anna shared with Deana and Pam and their family. She always made you smile and laugh and had such a great attitude. She will be missed by the whole entire Rizzo Family.

Nani was the most giving person who was totally devoted to her family. We are so lucky to have known her and enjoy her friendship. There will be a lot of tears and sadness but I know you are in a happy place with your husband. We will miss you Nani and will think of you always.
