I forgot about this ! Dad ! I was always sad over you n always missed you , but when mom passed away I found myself grieving for you 10 fold .... I´ve learned that you were my best friend and I could count on you for everything... when you were dying you cried apologizing to me for not being there for me ! But dad you really really were ... your disappointment was so justified.... I´m so so sorry dad I did not make you proud in life ... I wish I could have a second chance to show you what I´m made of ... I´m made of frank and Maryanne Alberti ... I was born with your strength n omg the 2 strongest ppl I´ve ever known .... Happy belated Father´s Day n early happy bday !
Love always n forever Jenny ! Xoxo

Hi babe. You were 80(!!!!) yesterday. How I wish we were together for it. I still love and miss you so much. You are the subject of conversation, even after 10 years, more than you could know. Looks like I'll be seeing you pretty soon. As much as I would hate leaving my kids and all the grands, I look forward to seeing you again and if you have any way, have my mom there with you. If I saw you two, I would never be afraid. Love Maryanne.

Happy Birthday Pop. Albert is graduating from high school tomorrow. Wish you were here to see him walk across the stage. He sure loved his Papa! Tommy is a great kid and turning into quite a young man. You would be proud of both of them, I know I am. They both remember their Papa and miss you very much. Please continue to watch over Mom right now, she needs you. She is being so brave and I'm proud of her.

Well, looks like you want some attention today since I turned on this tablet and this sit just popped up. Still missing you and wishing you were still with me. I know we will be together again sometime soon. I know your watching over us and see good things and not so good. Please pray for us to Jesus to heal us all. Please be with me with my operation. I want to feel you there. You drove me nuts but you always made me feel safe. Love you babe. Maryanne.

Sorry I missed your 8 year anniversary. I didn't forget, just couldn't face it. Love and miss you very much. We all do. We talk about you and laugh and sometimes cry. You were such a presence in our lives...bigger than life, that it's hard to believe you could be gone. Sad but true. Never forget you and never stop loving and missing.

Frank, missing you so much lately. I heard some guy singing "MY WAY" so beautifully on TV and I had to burst out crying, it suddenly hurt so much to think of you. It was right in front of Debra but I couldn't not stop sobbing. I know your in a much better place and your happy and that makes me happy for you but sad for me. I told you when my time comes the only faces I want to see is you and my mom. Make it happen. Your still my go-to guy, well, you and now Vinny. Lol. Love you hon. Lord knows you were ever perfect but it turned out you were perfect for me. Love and kisses, Mary Anne.

Hi Frank. No i didn't forget your birthday. You would be 76 today and how I wish you were here to celebrate. You left us all way too soon and we still miss you very much.
We talk about all the laughs you gave us and just shake our heads when we compare notes about your "Frankisms" as we like to call them. You were one of a kind and there is no one who can compare to you; not for me. Love you and think of you every day and night. Sometimes you feel so close. I know I will see you again one day. All my love now and forever, Mary Anne.

Wish I could see you once more and not just in my dreams so you would know that no matter what, I have always loved you with all my heart in the worst of times and in the best of times, I never fell out of love with you. I know you are around all of us every day. I feel you everywhere in this house and I have even seen you many days. You would be so proud of the boys and how they have had my back through all the hards times of the past year... I know I will be forever grateful for them. Jennifer has pitched in too and has been there for me every day. Please pray for our kids. I want to know when we are both gone that they will always have each other. thinking of you today so much and it feels like you just left. I miss you so much! Until we are together again, all my love goes out to you. You used to sign cards from "your Frankie". You still are my Frankie and always will be. Love and XXXX Mary Anne.

I was playing in a basement at uncle vinnies house and mom said " papa is on the phone, he wants to talk to you" and i always got soo scared i said " no" and rain down stairs.. This went on for couple of weeks.. Finaly, mom said papa misses you soo much.. And i took the phone and you were on!! Now you dont come in my dreams once.. I want to see you papa, i relt do.. Form of an angel or just you.. i want see you

Mary Anne Marmo

February 4, 2012

Hi babe. Still missing you after 3-1/2 years. Like it was yesterday. I read all kaitlyn messages and even though the grammer and spelling is not great, I love the things she wrote. She is a very smart young lady. Tommy and Albert are doing great. Tommy is such a little man and I can see he will grow into a fine man just like his dad. Albert is loveable as ever. So sweet and loving and of course, your little namesake Frankie is a joy to behold. What a doll! You would just eat him up. Sammy could use a little work. Maybe you could put a bug in her ear. I jut read the things Vinnie wrote when I was so very sick and it brought tears to my eyes. I know my mother and you were watching over me and I survived. Until we are together again, all my love, Mary Anne.

February 3, 2012

kaitlyn tucker

January 3, 2012

December 30, 2011

papa, now JoJo is with you. i miss you every day. i no you love me but if you were still alive me and you would be best friends. what people might now is that sometimes you visit all of us. but what they dont no is that not gone, i think your spirit is still with us all. when the wind blows your there, when we dream of you your there. and now jojo gets to be with you in this wonderful aventure.

Ahhh Dad, thank you. Mom is doing much better and may be going home soon. She was in a fight for her life and won. I know you were there with her every step of the way. Please continue to watch over her. I love you Pops!

Vinnie

November 13, 2011

Dad, Mom needs you right now. She is not doing well and I'm worried. Please help her get through this and back to us health. She's strong and has a lot to live for so I know she is fighting. We all need her here with us, I need her!!! Visit her in her dreams to reassure her. She must be feeling scared and alone. Let her know we are all here by her side. I love and miss you so much. I wish you were here to help all of us get through this difficult time.
Love your boy...

Hi babe...Yesterday was your 3rd anniversary in heaven. Hard to believe its been 3 years already. Still miss you so much. You are never far from my mind and I can still feel your presence in this house. you know I was very sick yesterday or I would have sent this on the 30th..your date. Tomorrow we will be going to Vinnys house for dinner and to honor the one not with us...you. How we wish you were here. I know we will be together again. Please pray for me at this particulary hard time in my life. Love you forever and always.

Mary Anne Marmo

June 22, 2011

Your 3rd birthday in heaven. You would be 73 years today. How I wish we could celebrate it together. Nothing is the same without you.
I feel you close to me every day. You are never far from my mind or my heart. We were hoping and praying that little Frank Vincent would be born today...that would have been perfect, but I know there is a reason for everything and so far, it does not look like its in the book for today. Please watch over that boy. We will tell him all about his papa Frank and why he was named after him.
Love you Frank...forever and always. Hugs & Kisses...til we are together again, stay close.

Vinnie

June 22, 2011

Happy Birthday Pops. I love you!

May 28, 2011

Hi Frank. No particular reason I am writing but that I've been thinking of you today so much. Just one of those days I guess. Still missing you and thinking of your every day. Still wish you were here with us. Soon little Frankie will be born and even though the situation is not ideal I know you would (and do) love your little namesake. Please watch over him and protect his from harm. Help jen get through whats ahead. I feel your presence each and every day...its really amazing. Until we are together again, I love and miss you. Mary Anne.

February 4, 2011

Its been so long since I spoke with you or heard your voice, but it is still in my head and when I close my eyes I can still hear you. Sorry I did'nt write at the hoidays but it seems to just get worse each year and its hard to gather my thoughts. Thank for looking out for us. I feel your presence every day and I know your keeping me able to stay in our forever home. I feel you all around me all the time....you said if there was a way you would let me know you were here and you have. It keeps me going. I know I will see you when my time comes and I look forward to that. I know you know your going to have another grandson right around your birthday on June 22nd. He s due on the 27th but we are hoping it will be on the 22th. We know for sure that his name wil be Frank Vincent...our little Frankie!!! So glad!!! I know you are too. Love you forever and always...hugs and kisses. Do you remember how you used to write that on every card you ever gave me, and so did I on yours. You always signed with "Your Frankie" you will always be just that. Til we are together again, your my angel. Love you and miss you so much.

Hi Dad, these two years have gone by so fast. It feels like yesterday we were sitting in your family room talking and laughing, all the while knowing your days were numbered in this life. I think of you every day and look forward to seeing you again in the next life. I continue to talk about you to Albert and Tommy so they don't forget who Papa Alberti was and how much he loved them. Both boys have a vivid memory of you and miss you very much.
Thank you for being there for me whenever I needed you. I love and miss you greatly.

Your boy,

Hey Honey: This is your second year in heaven...I know that you are aware of how much I miss you and have missed you each and every day in this past 2 years and I will continue to love and miss you all the days I have left. I just could not let this day go by without acknowledging that 2 years ago today, almost every single person in this world that you loved was surrounding you on this date and just around this time of evening saying goodby and wishing you well on your journey and sending you along with much, much love. Please keep visiting me in my dreams. Love and miss you every day, until we are together again, Mary Anne

Well Frank it's hard to believe that it's been two years since your gone. We had many cups of coffee together over the years and discussed just about everything. We didn't always agree but that's what made our conversations interesting. Just want you to know we are thinking about you.

Hi babe. You would be 72 today and this is your second birthday in heaven. I miss you so much and think of you every single day. Not a day goes by that the kids and I and even your friends don't talk about you and sometimes we cry, but we also smile as we remember your stories and "frankisms" that only you could get away with saying. You were a very special man and I often told you that you were bigger than life. Well now so is your memory. We all love you and miss you dearly and I most of all. Knowing I will be with you again someday keeps me going. Your ALWAYS in my heart and FOREVER on my mind and you always will be. Happy Birthday hon.I carry you with me every day.

hI honey..in another week or so it will be 6 months since we all saw your face and heard you beloved voice...well, i know you are aware of what this day is...this will be the very first birthday of my life for the last 38 years that you will not be here to spend it with me...right now I have a knot in the pit of my stomach just thinking about that. As the time is passing before my eyes I become more and more aware of just how much I depended on you and what a huge gap your passing has left in my life and in my heart. With each milestone in life, it hurts more and more...this birthday will just be another sad milestone without your presence I miss you so much as I sit here with tears streaming down my face and cannot help but wish you were still here with me and our family. I love you, Frank, now and forever and til the day I die and join you. You promised that your face would be the first I will see when that day comes and that thought comforts me. Thanks for everything you have done for me and our kids. Bye for now. LOVE AND KISSES ALWAYS; MARY ANNE.

Dad
I cannot believe that you have been gone almost four months.I think of you all the time.Its really crazy that my mind just cannot wrap around the reality that you are not here. When the reality does set in I feel like I get punched in the stomach, and my eyes well up and the tears flow like they are never going to stop. Dad , I miss you so much and am so thankful for the wonderful months I had with you. You and I sometimes didnt see eye to eye.
But,I always knew you loved me and God knows how much I love you. When you were sick I knelt in front of you and you told me how much you loved me and that you were sorry if you ever made me feel bad. I also told you that all you ever wanted was the best for me and that I am sorry for any heartache that I caused you. We started over that day. We saw each other in a different light. I could not
and would not ask for anything different. What we all overcame in that short time was truly divine .Dad you are the strongest person I will ever meet in my life. Until we see each other again, there will always be a part of me gone for good. I took your advice and did it for you and in the long run, it has worked for me for six months because of your inspiration...until I see your beautiful face again, Love Jen.

January 12, 2009

Hi Dad,
It's been a long and hard three and a half months since you left us. I miss you so much and can't wait for the day when we will see each other again. I will never forget all of the wonderful things you said to me and the love you showed me towards the end, those memories will last me a lifetime. You were truly the BEST dad a son could ask for. Dad, you will always be in my heart and my thoughts. I love you more then I could possibly express in this letter. I still can’t believe the strength you showed all of us the last few months of your life. You are and always will be my role model and my hero.

Your loving BOY,
Vincent

FRANK, IT'S BEEN OVER 3 MONTHS NOW AND CLOSING IN ON 4. LIFE HAS CHANGED SO MUCH FOR US All, BUT ESPECIALLY FOR ME. CHRISTMAS WAS VERY HARD, BUT NEW YEARS WAS A KILLER. IT WAS SO EMPTY WITHOUT YOU...ALL I COULD DO WAS CRY AND CRY...BUT I KNOW YOU WERE THERE WATCHING OVER ME, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU PLAYED "MY WAY" ON THE CELL PHONE. WOW!!! OF ALL THE THINGS YOU HAVE DONE TO LET US KNOW YOUR STILL AROUND, THAT WAS THE MOST IRREFUTABLE AND CLEAR SIGN THAT, JUST AS YOU PROMISED ME, YOU LET US KNOW YOUR STILL AROUND AND CARING ABOUT EVERYTHING WE DO. WELL, HERE'S TO A BETTER YEAR...PLEASE KNOW THAT YOU ARE ALWAYS IN MY HEART AND ON MY MIND, EACH AND EVERY DAY...I STARE AT YOUR RESTING PLACE ON THE MANTLE AND SEE THE BEAUTIFUL CLOCK YOU GAVE ME AND IT MAKES ME SO SAD, BUT ALSO SO GLAD TO KNOW HOW MUCH YOU LOVE ME. I RECEIVED THE CHRISTMAS CARD YOU SENT ME (ANOTHER SHOCKER)...IT MADE ME CRY AND IT MADE ME SMILE..THANK YOU. UNTIL WE ARE TOGETHER AGAIN, I LOVE AND MISS YOU...YOUR FOREVER LOVE, MARY ANNE!!!!

DAD
I STILL AM IN SHOCK.MY MIND WILL NOT EXCEPT THAT YOU ARE GONE,BUT SOONER OR LATER I HAVE GOT TO FACE REALITY. I FEEL YOU ALL AROUND ME YOUR PRESENCE IS SO STRONG. THERE WERE SO MANY BLESSINGS THAT CAME OUT OF THIS EXPIRENCE. I KNOW THAT MY LIFE WILL NEVER BE THE SAME I HAVE GROWN SO MUCH.WHEN MOM CALLED ME AND TOLD ME YOU HAD CANCER,AND IT WAS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME,RIGHT THERE AND THEN SOMETHING INSIDE OF ME GREW UP, YET FELT LIKE A LITTLE GIRL WHO NEEDED HER DADDY.I TOLD YOU I HAD THIS DESIRE TO PICK YOU UP IN MY ARMS AND DO WHATEVER IT TOOK TO KEEP YOU SAFE,YOU THOUGHT THAT WAS CUTE.

Frank, you have always been and always will be the love of my life. 38 years went too damn fast..but through all the good times and all the bad times, we always loved and adored each other in every way. Remember your promise...your face is the first one I will see when it is my turn. You will know it's me because I'll be the one running joyfully toward your open arms. Until then, I will talk to you every day and dream of you every night. Your soul mate Mary Anne. Rest in peace in the love of myself and all our wonderful children.

Til we meet again, watch over us.

DAD…I can’t believe you’re gone. Who among us would have guessed that FRANK ALBERTI would no longer be here when needed? You had a larger then life quality about you that nobody could deny. During the past few months I felt drawn to you and needed to be by your side at all times. You were my friend and confidant but most of all you were my Dad. Not being home with my family during this time was hard on my wife, so I want to thank her for never once complaining when I would leave the house early in the morning to see my Dad, and then return long after she and the kids were in bed. Those days I spent with him were priceless and will last me a lifetime. SO THANK YOU HONEY. I LOVE YOU.

I also want to thank my Mother for taking such good care of my Dad. He had only two requests when he found out about his cancer. He told her he wanted to be pain free and he wanted to die at home with his family. That proved difficult because one morning we couldn’t control his pain and Dad slipped into a deep sleep. Mom made the difficult, yet easy, decision to have him taken to the hospice center, where they could get his pain under control. Those were hard days and there were a couple of times when the family surrounded Dads bed anticipating his last breath. But true to form, and to the disbelief of medical staff, Dad woke up. Those were the best 2 or 3 days of my life. I had my Dad back for a bit. Dad did so well that my mom was able to take him home, where he wanted to be. Dad was in and out of consciences but continued to fight his illness. I still can’t believe how strong he was, maybe too strong for his own good.
So mom, I know it wasn’t easy, and I want to thank you for honoring my Dads final requests. I LOVE YOU.

Some of you may not know this, but my Dad had been battling cancer for more then twelve years, and has always come out on top. He referred to his cancer as “The dog”. He said that dog has been chasing him for years and is finally starting to catch up. He said he would use all of his strength to fight that dog when it got to close. Always being a man of his word, Dad fought his cancer, refusing to give in until HE was ready to go. I was blessed to be there when my Dad took his last breath. He exited this life the way he lived it, with a calm display of dignity, courage, and strength.

SO DAD…I speak for all of us when I say you will be sorely missed and never, ever, forgotten. Some day we will all be together again. In the meantime, look down on us with your loving eyes and we will do our best to make you as proud of us as we are of you.

Goodbye Dad, I love you.
