I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I am also so sorry I just heard the news yesterday, Dec. 20th.

I remember your mom, grandmother and great-grandmother as the generous lady who let me come into her house, down the block, and play with "her toys" when I was only three, 54 years ago!

She passed only 13 days after Evy Cozzolino, my mom. My heart goes out to all of you.

lovingly, Cynthia Bettini
