To the whole Digirolamo family - Our sincerest sympathy to you all on the loss of Aunt Fran (all these years later - that's what she still was to us!). We were so disappointed not to be able to offer our condolences in person, but know you understand why we couldn't be there. Both Dad & Aunt Fran have moved on to a better place, where they were both welcomed by their spouses and other family and friends. May they be at peace. Love from Tom & Marlene (Pedulla) Remein

Fran will be missed by our family. She was always there for My father, right up to his very ending days.

She was a wonderful companion to him and she was a lady who loved to dance.

My deepest sympathy to her family and friends.

Dear Cousins.
You all know how we feel, Aunt Fran will be missed so very much.
I will always cherish that day last summer, when just the two of us drove out to visit dad in Newark. We had such a great time together, seeing dad, chatting, and having lunch together. I wish we could have done that again, as she often mentioned to me in our little chats since then, but it was not to be.
She was a beautiful lady, always dressed to a T, with every hair in place. I can see her now, in the kitchen on Gillett St, with her apron on getting a turkey ready for a Thanksgiving family dinner and still looking great. I remember her being at the Wilder Market helping Uncle Steve & Uncle Lou. Then there she was behind the counter dowtown at the telephone company, where I often stopped to visit her if I was shopping at Midtown and so many more
memories.
Now, that's what we have left, those cherished memories of those special times to keep her close to us.
I'm sure Uncle Steve, Aunt Caroline, and Mom was there with open arms to welcome her home.
We send to you all, our deepest condolences.
love, Marybeth and Michael
