Francesco, Carmela, Jimmy, Bianca, James, Marisa...Lucia è solo passata dall'altra parte. Chiamatela con il suo nome, parlatele nello stesso modo affettuoso che sempre avete usato. Non assumete un'aria triste. Continuate a ridere di quello che vi faceva ridere, di quelle piccole cose che tanto vi piacevano quando eravate insieme. Pregate, sorridete, pensatela. Lucia non è lontana, è solo dall'altra parte. Asciugate le vostre lacrime e non piangete. Se l'amate il vostro sorriso è la sua pace.
