Mr. Maffa,
sir, I didn't know you but I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the U.S. Navy during WW II and for being a member of the Greatest Generation. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Marilyn and Family:
My heart goes out to you in this time of sorrow. It seems we've shared a lot of experiences these past few years, and this is yet another one. Please know that Rocco's laughing it up with Gordon and Joan right now! My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
