It was a sad but beautiful day that I'm sure Mrs Beniamino ordered up for everyone so we were not to hot or to cold.
Just one more special day she provided for her family and friends. Ann Marie's words at Scared Heart Church spoke volumes about her Mother and how she did the most important things for her family Loved and Nourished them.
My condolences and deepest sympathy.

My deepest sympathies. I just found out about "Aunt Nancy." She was such a wonderful person and funny as hell! What a joy to have known her. She made such a positive impact on those who knew her.

Mom, we are coming to see you today for the last time because we know you must go to Heaven and meet Dad. Its hard to say goodbye but we know its better for you. Please give Dad a huge hug for me, something I know I didn't do enough while he was with us and we all know that he was not a big hugger. Please know you will be missed very much but your love for all of us will be felt forever and ever. God bless you Mom

Nannie, I will forever admire your strength you had, the courage you showed us all and the fight you kept for so long. You are an amazing woman!! Anyone who met you instantly fell in love with you, you always put others before you put yourself and you always had us laughing so hard. I will forever cheerish those memories and always keep them and you close to my heart! But one thing I will never forget is to always keep faith. You taught me to always keep it and never let it go. I love you so much and miss you terribly! Take care of poppie up there. Xoxox

I will always remember Mrs. B. dancing in her chair at AnnMarie and Regina's 50th Birthday. I admired her for the zest she put into life even when things had changed so much. I know she will be missed tremendously by all her family and friends. With deepest sympathy, Valerie Maratto and Family

Dearest Mom, I am so proud to say that I was your daughter-in-law. You were the strongest, sweetest, funniest woman I have ever met. I am a better person today because you have been part of my life for the last 23 years. Now rest, the pain is gone, and dance with Dad and the angels. We all know how much you love to dance. We will never forget your sweet memories....

Mom, Thank you for all those wonderful years, I want you to know that I always knew it was you who was the strength of the family. You were always the happy one, smiling no matter how much pain your were in. I was so very proud to have you as my mother, through all the hard and easy times, it was you who bonded all of us together. You were always there from the beginning to your last day. You will be missed so very much. May God bless you, and Mom, I am certain you have re-united with dad in Heaven.
