Dear Joe and Rocco,
My family and I would like to offer our deepest condolences. Your mother was amazing classy woman. I remember when we lived above the store she gave me my first job working in the office and every time she came in she had that wonderful smile on her face and always made everyone's day. May God bless her and all of you.
