Nana...I will always love you..I will miss you asking me everytime I see you.."what must you do"..I will miss you asking me where Papa is...and most of all I WILL miss you asking if you are all mixed up?...You were the best grandmother any one girl could ask for..

MY POEM TO YOU from all of us grandchildren!!

As we look back over time
we find ourselves wondering .....
Did Iwe remember to thank you enough Nana....
For all you have done for us?
For all the times you were by all our sides to help and support us .....
to celebrate all our successes...
to understand our problems ...
And accept our defeats?
We all wonder if we ever thanked you for the sacrifices you made.
To let us have the very best..ice cream with real hersey syrup..
And for the simple things
Like laughter, smiles and times we shared?

If we ever forgot to Thank You Nana..I am thanking you now from all of us..

Nana..for all of us you gave your best, so now the time has come for you to rest.
So go in peace Nana, you've earned your sleep, your love in our hearts, we'll eternally keep!!

Love all your Grandchildren..great, & great great....xoxoxo RIP

Of all the things we lose along the journey of life. One of the greatest loses is a Grandmother. Grandmothers are the structure and the strength to every family. Nana 'Catherine Cucinotta' was just that, A tribute to Malden (Just voted one of the best cities to raise a family) And she spent 80 years of her life invested into that accomplisment. And 75 years of that time married, raising her family with integrity, respect, faith and more importantly LOVE.
Through our time on this world the lord will test us with many dissappointments and challanges along the way. And through that journey he throws an occasional diamond in the rough, Its only the fortunate people that take the time to stop and observe that shining star. And Nana was definitally our diamond and forever our shining star.
I have been blessed to have the opportunity to share over 30yrs of my life with such a wonderful family. And take great pride in saying I have had the greatest fortune of knowing such a special jewel. A WOMAN of exceptional strength, A WIFE of total dedication, A MOTHER with unconditional love. A GRANDMOTHER of love and understanding, A GREAT GRANDMOTHER of hugs and kisses. A GREAT GREAT GRANDMOTHER of strong beliefs and strong family values sharing love , joy and happiness. Passing on all her family traditions.
She is what makes a city stand out and a family stand strong... But more importantly Nana Cucinotta is the very reason we should always take the time to slow down .. Take a good look around...And find more of those special gifts from God.... Remember he sprinkles jewels among us and stars shine for a special reason. Nana Cucinotta was living proof of that.... She will be greatly missed.. But her legacy will live on in our hearts forever.............There will never be enough Thank You's to the Cucinotta family for sharing thier Nana with all your friends along the way... Because of that we have been blessed.
Love Theresa
