Mary A. Giarraputo

God looked around his garden and found an empty place.

Compi, we want you to know that we are here for you and your family, day or night.

We love you,
John & Kathy Bonacorso and Family

To my old friend Stevie, you have my deepest sympathy. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Mary and I were friends since we were 5 years old. We became especially close during our teen years and had lots of good times. She was the most courageous person I ever knew.
