Maria - I knew you though not well, and will always regret that I never made it to your funeral. But your daughter MiMi, who I know you through, is one of the finest people on earth -- and loved you with a deep concern. I am certain that when you left this life, you were welcomed into heaven.

MiMi,
In just minutes the memorial mass will begin at Our Lady of Pompeii for your mother. I am so sorry to have just learned of her death. But your mother - whom I recall meeting once at your birthday party - lives on in the beautiful descriptions you shared in her obituary, particularly your observation of how your mother inspired and motivated so many of all ages to extend themselves beyond themselves, giving to others unselfishly in small ways and large. Blessings to your family -- and on the soul and spirit of your deeply beloved mother.
Love,
Mary and Martin Canelli

Dear Charlie and Mr. Joe
My prayers and sympathy are with you at the loss of your Mom and wife. She was there for us to lean on when my Dad passed and without her calm influence and empathy I do not think I would have gotten through those days.
My Mother Linda Broccolino is in California and is so sorry she can not be here to comfort you as you did for all of us.
Your Mom did live up to her name Maria Santa.
God bless you all and give you strength to accept his will.

Alla famiglia Zannino,
I am saddened to hear of the passing of Mrs. Zannino, as I called her. When I was small and with my mother I remember her as this tall, beautiful woman. As I grew and dealt with her as a member of the Order Sons of Italy I began to know her qualities of caring, giving and love for her culture. As the teacher of her son I saw her in her role of a loving yet “con polso” mother. Over the years I had many occasions to see her in many roles and whatever she was involved in, whether as a business woman or in later years a matriarch she always had time for a smile, the years never changed that nor her elegance in dealing with people and life. A true Lady has departed us but her smile continues on with her children, grand-children and generations to come. Unfortunately I am out of the US but will be thinking and praying for all of you on this day.
Sincerely,
Elia Mannetta
