Dearest Aunt Mary
As your Anniversary draws near it doesnt seem possible it has been 12 years since you passed. I can still see your little smiling face at the window waving good- bye to us as we ended a trip to Buffalo. I know you and my Dad as well as your other brothers and sisters are all laughing like crazy up in heaven now! May God Bless you always and I love you and will continue to pray for you. Hugs to Dear Anita as I think of her often.
Love you always,
Gemma

Dear Family, I'm lucky enough to have two of the dolls that Aunt Mary made. My dad gave them to me with pride. I have one in my house, and the other on display in my classroom. All the girls in my class want to take it home, but I tell them that it is special to me because it was made by my Aunt Mary. I'll always remember Aunt Mary and all the fun we had on our visits to Buffalo. I'm certain that God will comfort you and bless you in your time of need.

Dear Family, My deepest sympathy to all of you. I was very sad to hear of Aunt Mary's passing. I will always remember her famous stories and how my father looked forward to hearing her voice. They reminded me so much of each other in so many ways. I will never forget my many trips to Buffalo. I will keep her and all of you in my prayers.

Dearest Aunt Mary and Family, So very saddened to hear the news of Aunt Mary's passing. She is with her family that went before her and is at peace. I loved the times we visited and she made us all waffles!! Some of my fondest memories with my Dad are remembering our Buffalo trips as well. I will keep her and your family in my prayers.

Aunt Mary, Oh how my father loved you! I remember how fondly he spoke of you. Being in Buffolo with him to see you I could see the love he carried for you and your family. The laughs we had over your stories of growing up will stay in my memory forever. You laughed until you cried. I remember seeing your finely made miniature shoes and the trip when you gave me a pair. I still cherish them. Whenever my father went back to Buffolo I could see that you made him feel like he was never gone. I am sure that you are reunited with those who have gone before that you've loved. I will miss those times Aunt Mary. Love,Joe Sagliani and family.

My dearest Grandma Nonny,
It was such an honor for me to really bond with you during your stay at the nursing home. I'll always remember playing bingo with you, and all the times you would say take me for a ride in your wheelchair. Every visit you would ask me if I had chocolate in my purse, untill I finally learned to come prepared. My mother warned me this time would come when you would no longer be in our lives. But I will always cherish the times we spent together. I wouldn't have missed it for the world. I love and miss you.

Although I had only a short time to get to know you, you were without question everything a loving mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and great great grandmother epitomizes. Denise had told me wonderful things about you that she remembered throughout her life.I know the good Lord has a special place for you in his home. I love you and will miss you. May God give you all you deserve.
