John and Family-

Deepest condolences on your loss...
I echo what the Byron Street gang (Anthony Leone and the Cuneos) mentioned- Adele was a huge part of our life growing up- a piece of us was lost. God Bless

The hand of God shall hold you,
The peace of God enfold you,
The love that dreamed and formed you
Still surrounds you here today.
The light of God beside you,
Above, beneath, inside you,
The light that shines to guide you home
To the loving hand of God.
Adele, you will be missed. Rest in peace. Love Diane MacMullen, Mohammed and Christopher Knanfi
