My father was a kind, loving and fiercely protective of his family. He was funny and Loved our Cats Misty and Mugsy. He was such a great cook of Italian Food. I think I will never eat the same again. I miss him so much Not long after he passed my Mother also passed. I believe they are in Heaven together. I pray that they develop a cure for Lou Gehrigs because no one should have to go through that. I am happy you are no longer suffering. I will always love you always I miss you so much.. Love, ❤ Laura.
