Vito, Peter, Frannie and family,

I am very sorry for your loss. It seems like only yesterday thst I was a youg kid visiting your farm on the weekends with my familiy while living in Binghamton. Those are very fond memories. Peter, I really enjoyed sitting with your mother last summer at the pig roast and exchnging a few friendly verbal barbs. I thought that it was cute when I said to her that she should stop "zinging" me. She had to ask what "zinging" me meant. That's how I will always remember her ---a great sense of humor and full of life, fun to be with with a great smile on her face. God bless all of you. She will be greatly missed.
