Dear Irene and Family,
We are so sorry to hear about Mary's passing. She was truly a beautiful woman and always so kind to all of us. We also wanted to let you to know that my father has been in the hospital for the last 2 months in Florida and unfortunately cannot travel back home at this time. My brother, sister and I are also here in Florida and we are all very sorry to miss the services. Our deepest sympathies go out to you and your family. You are in our hearts, thoughts and prayers.
Love,
The Baldassari's
