To the Family of Mrs Bastolla,



Hopefully some of the older family members will recall the insurance man (Bankers Life) who would come by the house on Bower Hill Road and help with the medical insurance claims back in the 1980's. Although it's been over twenty years I can still see her husband John and of course Dominic working in the Garden and Carmella sitting on the back porch on a warm summer's eve.

For reasons I don't understand, some people we meet along the way just stay with us as did the Bastollas with me.I've often wondered about Carmella over the years and I'm truly saddened for your loss.

Thank you Carmella, and John, and Dominic for being a part of my life.
