Dear Anthony, Anthony and Mellisa: I am so sorry for the loss of a great woman, wife and mother. She no longer suffers and I am confident she is looking down on all of you. Look for unexpected messages-they will come if you keep an open mind. Remember the wonderful times you had with your wife and mother. I will include Shirley in my prayers daily. I am so sorry for the pain you all are going through at this time in your lives.

Love: Rich Bongiorno
