Cap I can't beleive that last week at the BP Station when we bumped into each other buying lottery tickets, was going to be the last time I was going to see your face or hear your voice. I'll never forget the Fishing Trips we went on together ( your huge sunglasses)or whenever David and I would go to A.C.and we'd always run into you just when you hit the Jackpot on the slot machine. All those football Sundays going to the games or watching the Giants Games at Richies & you making fun of my...

I will never forget what our oldest sister Marie told me how she thought you were such a cute baby, but would pinch your cheeks to make you cry just so she wouldn't have to babysit you. Even when she was getting near the end of her life, she would ask me how you were, and would repeat that story to me. I will miss you, Your Sister Roberta.

You took the time to show me some of your best recipes when you were at 44 Columbus Ave. Even when you showed me and walked me through it, the food never came as good as your. I will keep trying though until I get it to taste just like your. I really wish that you would have come with me and my mom to Las Vegas when...
