To my beautiful cousins, Your Mother, Grandmother and my Aunt will be greatly missed. Aunty was full of life, free spirited, and I was thrilled when we reconnected. She was a hoot to hang out with in
Arizona, and her endless energy will forever be cherished in my heart. I am so sorry for your loss.
Love you, cousin Chris Sinagra
