Thank you for touching our lives, with the sweetness and comfort of a hot cup of cocoa before bed, on a cold day, or being shared with friends. May God’s blessings be upon you and your family, always.

101 years young is how Charles Sanna will be recalled as we share the sweet treat of cocoa with family and friends. Thank you for sharing your father and sharing your family memories, as we make our own, over a cup of cocoa. In Isaiah 61:1-2 He binds the broken hearted and is near to those who mourn. Find comfort in knowing that Charles is in God's book of remembrance.
