Dear Wagner, Donaruma Family,
Please accept my sympathy in Fran's (Peanuts) passing. I have so many great memories of him and Carmella growing up on Greystone Avenue. What a wonderful couple. He was a great guy who provided so many laughs when needed when my Dad passed so young many years ago. They were both great support to my Mom in need. I am sure you have many fond memories that will ease your sorrow in his passing. He and Carmella are now together again.

Dear Wagner and Dunaruma family,
I am sorry to learn of Fran's passing. I worked with Carmella @ Party World and that is how I met him. I loved Carmella to pieces and am happy they are both together again.
