My heart goes out to all of you. I never once heard a negative comment come from Carol even when she could no longer walk she was always up beat and had a smile on her face.
When ever I saw her no matter how many years went by she still knew my name and would ask about my daughter by name how she remebered I will never know.
When she spoke about her family you could see the love in her eyes. She is so proud of all of you.
I like to remember her driving around in her Lincoln sporting a look with her jewelry, big hair, sun glasses, nails painted,
a kind heart and her endless energy. I will never forget all the laughs we shared in our kitchen. Carol has touched alot of people and will be missed.

Hey Non,
There's so much to say, but I don't know where to start. Your the best Grandmother a kid could ask for, your always there for the family, you care about everyone, and your always honest. At least to me you were.-heh- . I just really regret not seeing you as often as I should of. The last thing you said to me still rings in my head and I can't get it out. You said "oh you have a new car now Mikey?" and i said "yeah" and then you said "OH Great! Now you can come visit me all the time now!" That night you passed Non. But now you get to look over me now, all the time so you get to see me still! But if your gonna watch over anyone I think it should be Matt and Eddie, those two are trouble makers.-Heh-. But what I think I'll miss most is the funny little jokey E-mails you sent me, those were a riot!
Loving and missing you always,
Mikey <3

Misses Fletcher(nonny)
Your were an important part of many people's lives. Many of us would not have what we have today if it wasn't for you and I thank you for that. We were all very lucky to have you. Every weekend all my kids would look at Suanne and I and say can I sleep at nonny's because you were loved. I would come to get the kids at your house and sit next to you and talk for hours at a time. I will miss that. Your time here was way to short but what you did for so many people in that amout of time was incredible. Thank you for giving me your daugter to spend my life with and all the many other's that I would not have in my life If it wasn't for you. I Love you and will miss you so very much. Your Son in law and friend. Junior (Eddie)

Nonny,
You were one of the best grandmothers that I ever had, you were mostly there for everything. We all miss you and I wish you were back down here so I can talk to you more than I got to. I also wanted you to know that you were there for every one in the family and you're always going to be in my heart and every one elses heart. I know you're watching over us right now and you will never be forgotten.
Love, Robbie

Nonny,
I don't even know where to start. You where everything to me. You are my favorite person in the whole world. You were like a second mother to me. I could tell you anything and come to you when i didn't know where to turn. When i was little the highlight of my week was sleeping at your house and just getting to spend time with you. As i got older i stopped coming as much and i regret that so much now, i will never forgive myself because i know the time we spent together ment as much to you as it did to me. We used to make sugar free pudding together and decorate those cookies. You used to let me put your legs up on your bed when you went to sleep at night, and play with your good make up when i was little. I was so excited when you moved in with us for that short time. I loved when you took me to Florida it was the best week of my life. You let me have orange soda with breakfast every morning, but you told me not to tell my mom because you knew she wouldn't approve. We went to lego land and i got water shot in my eye because i looked into the hole, you thought it was funny. We went to nickolodean studies and auntie steph got slimed. We had such a good time. I looked forward to every holiday just because i would get to see you. I could sit here and fill the whole book with good times we had together. Nonny i really don't know what i'm going to do without you, this is going to be so hard for me. I hope you're the first person i see when i get to heaven, i know you'll be waiting for me. I love you so much and i already miss you way to much to handle. But your in a better place now and i hope your happy. You can walk now, so when i see you again you wont be able to run over my feet with your wheel chair haha. Tell Grampy i said hi and i love and miss him. I'm not going to say goodbye because this isn't goodbye i will see you again, but until then i want you to know that i will never stop thinking about you. I love you Nonny, more then anything else in this whole world <3
Your Loving Grandaughter,
Katie

mom,
i just wanted to tell you how much i love you and how much i miss you right now and i really dont know how i am gonna get through this but i will find a way. it has been very hard these last couple days not calling you i go to call you and forget your not there. i know that i put you through alot as i was growing up and for that i am very sorry for that. you took my son in for me because i couldnt take care of him and you gave him a great life. i thank you for being there for me when i needed you, the last conversation i had with you was how alex and i were gonna live with you and take care of you i remember you saying to me that you didnt think anyone wanted to take care of you but you were wrong we all did, but now your in peace with grampa and your mom and father crispo and they are gonna watch and make sure your gonna be ok so for all the times you stood by me, for all the trueth that you made me see, for all the joy you brought to my life for all the wrong you made right.
so mom rest in peace, send a sign every once in a while to let me know your watching over me and guide me when i cannot guide my self
alex misses you more than anything but we had a talk last night and he loves you but he knows your in heaven and i told him when u look at the sky and see a bright star thats nonny.
so i love you mom i wish you didnt leave so soon because we all needed you but we all know your not suffering from being sick.
well chat with you later
love you mom

To my loving mother,
You were the rock of our family. Always there for us and our children when we needed you. You were the most beautiful woman I know. Your smile and charm touched lots of people. I love you so much and will miss you as much. You were the light of my life. You will be greatly missed by all but never forgotten in our hearts. The kids are very sad now but know that you will be watching over them always and keeping them safe. Be free now and walk your path for you deserve the peace. You are with your parents now where you once were and we know you are safe there. I will see you again one day behind the gates of heaven, until then.
Love Forever

nonny,
you were the one person everyone looked foward to seeing, and you were always there to see. you had the words of an angel that could cheer up any sad soul. you were always there for me, and for every one who needed it. your were always the helper but never the helped, and we thank you for that. i know now you are in a safer, happier place with your parents having the fun with them that you've always wanted. i will miss you so much, and i always know that you'll be the guardian angel i have watching over me!
love your grandson,

To the Potito Family,
You are in our hearts and in our prayers during this difficult time. Your mother was a wonderful, loving woman who always had a smile and a hug for us whenever we saw her. We know she will be dearly missed by many.

My Mother, what to say. She was a wonderful person and a beautiful woman. She was a great mom, wife and grandmother. She loved spending time with her family. She was referred to as mom by more than just her own children. All of her grandchildren adore her. While my father was working hard to support his family she was the rock. She played with us, she took care of us, she had fun with us, she cooked, she cleaned, she gardened, she shagged us everywhere. She was a great hockey mom. She supported all of us in what ever we did. All of our friends wanted to hang at our house because they loved her. She became a foster mother and took in several unfortunate children. She adopted my sister Stephanie, now 22 and about to graduate from college, after having her from birth as a foster child. When dad said no, mom said yes. We spent lots of fun summers at York Beach with my mom. We spent lots of fun summers at the lake house as well. She loved the ocean and the beach. She was the light of my life.
I LOVE YOU MOM. You will be greatly missed but always remembered in our hearts.
Suanne

hey non, how's it going up there? it's not going so well down here,for me at least..you left us so sudden non and we didnt really see it coming... you were the one person in my life i could tell just about anything, you had all the answers and knew what to say at anytime to cheer me up or push me in the right direction. i know i did some messed up things and stuff i shouldnt have done and maybe hurt you in some way and i wish i could go back and change all of that.. everyone down here misses you non and we were so glad you were there on thanksgiving with us one last time, it was so nice to see you with the family. all the good times we had together will never be forgotten and i will certainly miss you more than anything and i wish i could take your place it just wasn't your time, to me at least i still need ya down here to guide me through and i like to think you still will from up there..so until i see you again non take care you will never be forgetten we all love you non.. watch over us... love you
