There are certain people God puts in your life. People who make you a better person. Give you life lessons that you carry on with you the rest of your life. People who you cannot thank enough. Aunt Nita and Uncle Bill were those people. I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Love Joe "Pino" Cesaratto

My thoughts and prayers go out to her family at this time. Heaven is for real....you'll see her again!
