Dear Alfonso and family, I was in Montepaone and Soverato and Zia Rosa Malta had asked me to visit you, but when I ran into your brother Franco he told me that you had already returned to the USA. My heartfelt condolences to you and everyone in the family. I did see your cousins in Milan and expressed my sorrow for the loss of their beloved aunt Rosaria. I remember your mom with great affection. I was so sad to hear of the loss of your dear sister, Vittoria, Saverio's wife Milena and now your mom. Know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. Maria Concetta Calabrese-Regan
