Dear Rita, Though we hadn't seen each other often lately,it was great to reconnect at our 50's gathering. We are all so much who we were even from back in high school AND that is a result of our families. May your mom rest peacefully and may you carry happy memories in your heart always.

Dr Tonino and family: My sympathy on the passing of your Mother and grandmother. It is hard to lose someone so near and dear during the holiday season. I know she had to be very proud not only of the accomplishments of her son but also of his family and of his love of Italy.

Dear Rita,
I offer my deepest sympathy, and prayers to you and your whole family on the recent passing of your lovely mother Mary. I met her at OLPH about 2 years ago during daily mass, and continued to see her off and on since. I introduced myself to you about a year ago at Sunday mass, when I went to give your mom a hug and say hi. Mary was such a beautiful, and courageous person, and always had a smile and tear of recognition of thos she cared about. She will be greatly missed by many. She touched my life in a very special way. She is at peace now. My thoughts are with you. Lynne Kenyon
