Dear Bernie and Rose,



We all love you both very much and we were all very sorry to hear about Joey. You both did so much for him for so long. No one could have asked for more devoted parents. The next few days will be the toughest, but as time goes on, things will hopefully be much easier on you. We are here when and if you ever need us.

Love your cousins,

Carolyn Lucchese, Chuck Lucchese and family and Dana and Jeff Newcomb.

Also... Your Aunt Rose Lucchese, your in her heart and prayers as well.
