My thoughts and prayers for the Rossi family. I always loved going to see Marlene and Mickey and all the kids with my Mom and Dad (George and Gloria). Love and Prayers Diane Letterle

Marlene was such a beautiful person. She was so warm and personable. We always enjoyed socializing with her. She will be missed. Our deepest sympathy to the Rossi family.

Thinking of the Rossi family today, especially Mickey. She welcomed us as kids, a bunch of stray cats, and she won't ever be forgotten. I'm certain this sentiment is shared by generations of young people who came to the Rossi household and were treated, and fed ("Don't be shy, eat!"), and made to laugh as if we were family. From 81st to Thraves, the same gracious good humor. Godspeed, Mrs. Rossi.

Our thoughts and prayers and with Mickey and his family. Marlene was such a wonderful person, always so friendly and nice with her wonderful smile.

Marlene was the loveliest and kindest person. She will be missed by many, but will live in all our memories forever.

Love and Prayers!. Slaunte to a great MOM!. Rest in Heaven!. Love, Patrick Mullen and Family

You and Marlene were always a match from Holy Name High school and on. I remember she played clarinet in the band. You always said "That's my gal". Wishing you and your family the best.
I'm sure Ronny Fiorentino and Kenny Cuccia would agree.
