Marasco family:

Our deepest sympathy during this difficult time. May Aunt Vera rest in peace and may the memories of her fill your hearts as you grieve.

I remember Saturdays when Ellen would take grandmom Tucker and the girls to the mall and church. What a nice sisterly tradition they all shared. She will be truly missed. Much love to all of you.
