Dear Luigi and Frank:

It’s difficult to write our feelings in English.

We always talk about our U.S.A. uncles and cousins, and we will always remember uncle Enrico and aunt Ida.

We are all very very saddened.

Antonio (87)is a very old man, and because of his bad health, we will tell him about his sister, tomorrow Wednesday.

She was very important to all of us like zio Enrico.

We send you an enormous kiss and a hug from Argentina.

We are going to remember she forever.

Zio Antonio, Zia Teresa, Luis, Emilio, Flavia, my son Pablo and my daughter Agostina.

Luigi, I send you all my love, Emilio.

To Zio, Dad and Costabile Family:

Today we celebrate Nonnie's life. She was the true definition of what family means and knew how to bring everyone together. With all the holiday parties and tables of food, Nonnie knew how to keep everyone happy, with not just here food, but her personality. She was a one of a kind...

Nonnie taught me some important lessons on how to be a woman, and wife. Lessons that I will always carry on and will one day pass down to my children.

I will always love u Grandma!
