Not sure what to say?

Dear Grandpa,

I loved you so very much. I know I wasn't the best granddaughter but I did love you & always thought you were so feisty & fun. We always enjoyed coming over Sundays for dinner. I love that you would make so much food (enough for an army) & become quite perturbed if we didn't have 3+ helpings. I also loved how important it was to you to make sure everyone else was enjoying themselves. You took great pride in watching your family enjoy the food you cooked for them. You...

My Dear Uncle,

All the fond memories and warm sentiments people have recalled and written about you, you might think there is nothing else to add. Jack and I have special moments of our own that we have shared with you that make us laugh,cry and shake our heads in amazement. So many people of many generations have gathered for you who you have shared special time with. It has been said that the number of friends a man has is a mark of his greatness. I am not sure this is a mark of...

Cathey, Howard and I send our sympathies to you and your family. It has been a long time since I saw your dad, the last time ....Phyllis' funeral. I have some fun memories from times at your house when we were kids....remember helping your dad 'candle' the eggs? My first trip to NY was with your family. Lots of good memories with a fun family. I am sure you will all miss him.....If I were in NJ ...I would be there.....love to y'all. Kathie

Dear beloved brother, I love you and will miss you. I have very loving memories of you. I remember what a hard worker you were even when we were very young, your strength and courage through the tough times. You had such a great love of life wanting to do and see everything, your enjoyment being with family. Joe and I will remember all the happy times we had with each other you will always be in our hearts. Your Loving Sister Phyllis and Joe Sabatini

Dear Uncle Sam, It is hard for me to express in words what you meant to me and also to Carmine. You were my second Dad, we enjoyed every minute we were with you and have very loving memories to remember you always. All the various things we did together and there were many which I am grateful. I will bring up one here. You showed us how to make your famous tomato sauce. We started with a shopping trip to buy all the ingredients returned home opened a bottle of wine and you supervising...

Christmas 2010

I'll always remember your smile and laugh. Your eyes would smile and your cheeks get higher as you turned and gave a look. You had such an appreciation for life and all that it came gave. Thank you Uncle Sam, for all of the great memories and the courage you shared. I'll miss you.

Love Juli

Cathy and family
I am blessed to have had your Dad in my life even if it was for a short time. He will always be in my heart. A kind and sweet man. Thanks for giving me the chance to spend time with your Dad and for being so kind to me. He will always bring a smile to my face.

Sal, when I think of all the good times we had together I can't help but to smile. Our trips to the produce market, our rides to the doctors and how could I ever forget our moments together visiting Elda in the nursing home. You guys always made me feel like I was family. For that I say thank you. Im so happy to know that you are with Elda now. I now have another angel to watch over me :). You will be truly missed. Love you always, Genevieve
