Hi, The Pasquerella Families.

My parents, Francesco and Arcangela Campagnano, live at Bertone Drive next 3rd house of Eleanora. I said hi to her some day. I did not know, she was born (what city) in the province of Benevento in the region of Campania in Italy. She is with her husband, Arthur in heaven. We pray for her.
God bless,
