To the family of Donald Mancini,
Words cannot begin to describe the sadness I have in my heart at the loss of Poppy. The love and admiration that he had for his family is truly a wonder. He not only was a devoted husband, but a loving family man. I remember many fond memories on memorial day weekends. We would have so much fun in the pool and never stopped eating- ( Nauny made sure of that ) He is now with the love of his life, and at peace. My sincerest condolences.

Mr mancini, there is not enough space in this guest book to let your family know how much you meant to our family (The Grants). No matter which one of us was knocking on that door you always greeted us with a huge friendly welcome. I loved it when you called me Suzie. The old neighborhood will never be the same. See you again someday. Candy, Nicky, Mary,Donna and Ursulia. I'm so sorry for your loss. Susan, Mike, Laura and Michael Ryan
