Andrea Dalessandro

We first met when I moved in with her family. I was an angry , tubby 9 year old and Andrea... dazzling at 17... was to me "the most beautiful girl in the world." We took different paths, and we didn't see each other as often as I would have liked, but the laughter, her wisdom, her creativity, and her practicality are woven into the fabric of my being. She will remain "the most beautiful girl in the world" -- my "big sister", my cousin Andrea-- archived in my heart . Genie

Andrea and I were high school classmates. We continued our friendship over the years and enjoyed many gatherings. She will be greatly missed even though we had been unable to gather as much in the past few years. My condolences go to Gene and her family.
