Dear Lisa, Davin, & Family,
We were sorry to hear of your mother's illness these last few years and now her passing. In the latter years, she would occasionally wander over to our home, coffee mug in hand, obviously reliving "the good old days" on Windwood Drive when neighbors were as close as family. "Better is a neighbor nearby than a brother far away." (Proverbs 27:10) The Tauriellos have always been good neighbors and been a blessing to our family.
We also pray for Frank's recovery and miss him as well.
Our sympathies in your loss,
Brian and Judy King

Lisa, Frank & Family...
I was saddened to hear of your loss. I always remember your mom as being a very nice lady; even when we were obviously up to no good, hanging out in front of your house for countless hours at a time and trampling the lawn to get to our "secret places" in the woods behind the house.
Let all of your memories comfort you at this time and know that I am thinking of you...
Love,
Toni

Dear Tauriello Family,
I am so sorry to hear that your mom has passed away. As I grew up, I remeber any time I saw your mom she was always friendly and cheerful with a big smile on her face... I will always remember her just that way. My sincere condolences to all of you.
