her soul.

Thank you Aunt Martha you were contact in locating my Dad. It was a great joy meeting you and will be remembered for ever.

With sincere condolences for your family's loss.

My prayers are with the family.Martha was a real lady. Rest in peace.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Melfi family. We knew your parents since the early '90s from BVM and will keep them in our prayers.

Mom: You were one of the Greatest Generation, and lived long and well. May your deep faith and belief find you in paradise, resting well with loved ones in God's grace.
