Poppy, we miss you more and more. It was bad enough you had to leave us and go to Florida after Nanny passed. But I know you enjoyed yourself down there. Now you are in an even better place with Nanny, Aunt Kathy, Daddy and Michael. And I know the first thing you ate are Nanny's meatballs. Like Uncle Vinny said, save some for us! Love you! Love Lisa and Alyssa

You gave me my first guitar, and fueled my love of music. That was 1966, and I still have that guitar on prominent display. Your brothers Nick and Larry will miss knowing you were always there for them. God Bless.
