I extend my condolences to the Sorrentino family and especially Clara whom I knew briefly at Edgewood Junior High School.



Clara, you used to light up Mrs Patterson's classroom with your bright eyed love of life. I hope that life in turn has honored your special gifts through the ensuing years.



I hope this little bit helps somehow in your overcoming your sorrow. Your mom and father must have been special people to have put so much zeal for life in you.



May you soon find peace and comfort in your life again.
