I only ever met my grandma when I was one and I don't remember much about her, but I do have a toy vacuum machine that she gave me and i still cherish it to this day. My dad, Auntie Anmarie, Uncle Nick, and all of your grandchild miss you and love you so very much.

I will miss my aunt very much. As a child she was the 'cool' aunt. I have many fond memories as a child but one stands out, going to Kiddyland in her new convertible.
As an adult, I admired & looked up to her. She was a wonderful aunt & friend to both Ron & I. We will miss her very much.
Anmarie, Rocco, & Nick our thoughts & prayers are with you always.
We love you very much.

Sorry to hear of the loss of your mother. I worked with Fran at Lions and had many chats with her about her wonderful family. Fran helped me when my daughter got married arranging the invitations for the shower and the labels. I'm sure she will be missed. Just remember:
Whatever your cross
Whatever your pain
There will always be sunshine
After the rain
Perhaps you may stumble
Perhaps even fall
But God's always there
To help you through it all.
Peace,Sue

I got to know Fran through Lung Cancer Survivors for Change. We traded phone numbers and talked atleast twice. Sharing the same disease, Lung Cancer, formed an instant bond. We both understood the other's plight. We found the we graduated high school the same year, 1961 (I graduated from Maine East). Fran will be missed. All of us at Lung cancer Survivors for Change enjoyed her postings very much.
