To the Petitti family,
I am sorry to hear of the loss of your mother. She was a kind and wonderful lady, especially to my mother. You see, she was my Mom's best friend (Pat Kane). They would call each other every day while they had their morning coffee and exchange stories, mostly about us, their kids. After all, they had 13 to choose from. In the earlier years, they had lots of fun together at the shows in Las Vegas and Atlantic City. I remember when your Mom would take Pat on a much needed girl's weekend down to the cape. They would come visit us at our cottage with little treats or prizes for all the grandkids. Our kids were all very young and always had trouble remembering Peg's last name as Petitti, so they always called her Peggy Potato. It made her laugh. I always knew her as a very kind, caring, loving lady, who I am sure will be missed by the large family she leaves. Patsy will be so very happy to greet her best friend, Peggy, after 15 years!! Thoughts and prayers are with you.
