The memory of you to this day remains in my mind as a beautiful mom with the smile of an Angel....and a voice we as kids could hear a mile away..(lol). As you rest in peace you left behind two amazing daughters who learned to raise families just as you taught them. You should be extremly proud of the beautiful girls you left behind to carry on your legacy. Love always Michelle (Palmigiano) and Chris DeLutri

10 years.. I miss you so much. its doesn't get easier, the days just happen. How I wish you were here to hug me, love me and guide me. Everyday is a challenge without you advising me. So much has changed and most things I wish it hadn't. I just want you back here. Words can not express the emptiness I feel without you with me. I love you. I saw a cardinal yesterday on the 10 year anniversary of you becoming an angel in heaven. xoxo

Dear Girlfriend - Almost a year without you! As your last days grew shorter and you thought yourself weaker, you only exhibited that much more strength and valor that has been an inspiration to us all. How missed you are, but you have left much of youself to dwell upon both with smiles and tears. As you are certainly looking down put all that special power in a direct path to your two dear daughters and the family they have created. Not only thinking of you at this one year juncture, but every day since you stole away. Lovingly, Angela

My girl has always been from day "1" the light of my life. I was the luckiest guy in the world to have had her for my wife for 43 wonderful years. She was so beautiful inside and out and I was so proud to be with her wherever we went. I only hope I have learned to be half the person that she was with the understanding and compassion that she had for others. Having her in my life for 48 1/2 years may have made me take her for grated at times, but I knew what I had and knew the special person that I was lucky to be married to for the 43 (felt like it want so fast) great years.

Hi Maur,
You were my first "Best Friend" and my last. I have made many friends since our childhood but never met one who could take your place. You were truely my soul mate which you so generously told me when I was leaving you after our last visit a couple of weeks ago. Those were the last words you spoke to me here on earth. What a gift you left with me.
Because of you, my childhood was bareable. More than bareable, it was the most exciting and the most fun I have ever had. It was like going to the circus every day. I WILL FOREVER BE GRATEFUL.
The only regret I have now is that I didn't have the courage to talk to you more in depth about your fears and emotions regarding your future with this illness. I was selfish in my desire to insist that you would beat it. I hope now that you know what was in my heart.
When I looked into the eyes of Nicole and Allison, I saw you and also saw how much you were loved by them. You certainly told me enough times what they meant to you.
I hope Al takes care of himself after all he's been through, as he has a tremendous job ahead trying to be there for the both of you.
I love you now and forever and I know that you have taken your place in the universe as the biggest and brightest star in the sky!!
Your Forever Friend,
Paula Surace Hirschel

Dear Dear Girlfriend - in every sense of the word. Notice how attracted we were to become your friend as young as we were in grammar school. We put aside those who we had been with since Kindergarten and whisked you up from 4th Grade on to this very day. I still do not believe you are not here physically, but do very much feel your playful spirit. Everyone can take something away with them of you and make it a part of their life. The courage exhibited on your part was immeasurable even when we were alone and I would ask you didn't you feel like screaming at this hand that you were dealt, but you just kept your one day at a time perspective, never caving. How staunch! Your circle of friends is a grand testimony to the wonderful person you were - always ready to do anything for anyone. Your life was one to be admired - you did it all and knew how to enjoy it. You have left your two beautiful girls - who are very special and already we can see you in them, just in the special guys they have chosen to share their lives with. They will pass on their goodness to your special grandchildren and you will perpetuate througout time. Al chose the first reading at your Mass and I was so touched because it was what I read for my own Mother and it was a powerful read to sum up a "strong woman" and that you were. Peace to you for all of eternity as you have earned every bit of for what you endured. My love to you, Angela

MOM-I will hold a special place in my heart for the memories I shared with you. It was an honor to be labled your "ROCK" and I would gladly carry you from "here" to the ends of time if we could have you with us once again. I will miss your daily phone calls and the many things that made you special and unforgetable. and I regret the time I didnt have with you.

Love your son, Shane

Mom - I love you and miss you so much! Today I woke up thinking about you dancing. I started to cry but thought that you are finally able to dance again. I miss you and wish you were here. Brooke and Shane will always know how lucky they are to have had you as their grandma even if it was just a short time.

My dear , sweet friend Maureen, I feel so lucky to have been able to spend so much time with you.
I always looked forward to seeing you. Whether it was to play cards or watch TV or just chat, it was always fun because of your amazing spirit.
I loved how excited you got when you had a new ice cream flavor or dessert that you insisted I had to try with you! You made me laugh on days when I thought I couldn't even smile...your strength and courage will always be an inspiration to me. In such a short time you became one of my best friends and I will treasure that forever. Love you!

Maureen, Just left your party...yes
you would have been completely happy with all of the activity taking
place. Everything that you were about your kindness, thoughtfulness
and complete caring you exposed everyone to came out in what everyone felt and share about you tonite. You would be so proud of the efforts your family has made to make your final goodbye so warm and filled with the photos and memories of your life. You were always a very special friend and so unique in the way you choose to handle your disease. You even did that with such grace and dignity. Your were truly a special gift to all of us who felt your spirit. You will be missed by so many and life will be alittle less full without you to see and talk to. The big five will never be the same.....you will always be in my thoughts and prayers,your forever friend, Rosalie(roro)
