Dear Balsamo Family,
We were so sad to hear of the passing of your dear mother. We remember when you moved in across the street from us on Alumni. We hadn't seen your mother in several years but always remember what a sweet, loving person she was. We know you will miss her greatly. You are all in our prayers.

Paula, I never had the opportunity to meet your Mom, but after reading all these beautiful comments and tributes to her, and just knowing you, I just know she was a beautiful woman inside and out. I wish I could have known her. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers, as well as in my heart. Love to all. Aunt Pat, Rochester, NY

Dear Balsamo Children,
We were shocked to learn of your lovely Mother's passing. We at Blessed Sacrament still miss the resturant and speak of your Mom and Dad often. We still laugh about calling up for a take-out order and your Dad would say, "15-20 minutes", every single time - no matter how long it would take. I have never found a better "alio oilo" than your Dad's.
We lost track of your family when it was closed and Phil Barile died who used to keep in touch.
Your Mother was truly an "angel" with the sweetest smile.
From your many friends from Blessed Sacrament, we send our love.

Dear Family...knowing your beautiful Mother lives on in the hearts of those she left behind, she will never be far away, but instead, close by, watching over, taking care of each of you until you are together again. With love and deepest sympathy...

Tomassa and family, you have my deepest sympathy on the loss of your daughter and mother. I admired the way she worked so hard in keeping her family together with so much love. She was named correctly because she truly was and is an "angel". She will never be forgotten and will always be in my heart. Aunt Jenny.......

Dear Paula and the entire Balsamo Family, our deepest condolences to you all for the loss of your mother. She was an amazing woman. We remember when we first met your family and you were all working so hard running your family restaurant after the passing of your father. Her strength was unwavering. We knew immediately she was a special woman. God bless you all.

Dear Paula, Vince, Sal and Tony, I choose to remember your wonderful mother as she was the day I met her at her home 13 years ago. She was so gracious and beautiful inside and out. She was so welcoming to me and my family. She could not do enough for everyone around her and never tired of helping others. We had a special relationship and she occupies a special place in my heart.
love,

Thank you Angela for letting me take care of you for almost 4 yrs. I will miss all the things that we used to do. Watching TV (EWTN Rosary with Mother Angelica, Daily Mass, The View, News, Divine Mercy, Father Leo, Rosary, Food Channel, Ellen Degeneres, Ophra, & Dr OZ etc. I will miss the mornings that you read all the prayers from different Saints & prayers. I know you liked it when I bring the PARADE magazine every Monday for you to read I will remember the smile on your face. I know we have frustrations because we can't get you comfortable. But when we get it & when I see you smile the frustrations goes away. When you find out someone in your family or we are sick you worry about us even though your that one laying in bed. You also tell us what medication to take. I will remember your beautiful smile when we give you flowers. You want to place it where you can see it all day. I wish I have your good memory. You remember everything from Birthdays, Anniversaries, Death Anniversaries & many more. I wish I met you before you got sick. You are a wonderful Daughter, Mother, Friend & Person! Welcome to your new home, your home at last. I will miss you! Till we meet again Angela! I love you!
