Dear Maryann & Family,

I recently spoke to Aunt Jo who told me about Cousin Anthony's passing. I'm so very sorry for your loss.

My memory of him is seeing my cousin's handsome, smiling face standing in Grandma's and Grandpa's house having a some kind of heated "discussion" about sports or the like.

May all YOUR wonderful memories of you and him and family comfort you at this difficult time.

God Bless all of you.

Sincerely,

Cousin Judy Pizzollo

Dear Maryann -- I was very sad to hear of Cousin Anthony's recent passing. My sincerest condolences and heartfelt sympathy to you and your family at this time. Even though we didn't see much of each other in later years, I'll always remember how happy my family and I were to see Anthony and Uncle Tony's other children when he brought them over to Grandmom and Grandpop's house and all the good times we had there together.

May God comfort you in your sorrow.

Cousin Angel Harrison

Dear Maryann and Family,

We have so many fond memories of Anthony over the years - from Croskey Street to Home and School to Choir to parties and events - he was always there to share a laugh and lend a hand. We will surely miss him. When we hear Frank Sinatra or Mario Lanza singing we will think of him, but somehow their songs won't sound quite the same. We feel your sorrow and pray that your strong faith will carry you through the days ahead. We're here for you! To Anthony, we say "Sleep Warm, Dear Friend."
