To: Eddie,Rosanne,Suzanne,John,David and the entire Simoncelli family

We are saddened and send our heartfelt prayers for your mom and the entire family. Your mom was exceptional, having raised all of you after your dad passed away and what a great job she did, we will always remember Jeanette's cheerful and loving ways, she always had a smile and never complained. We remember each Holiday especially Christmas, how excited your mom would be in looking forward to cooking a Special dinner for her family.

We are very sorry we can not be there, but your mom will always be remembered by us and many others she touched as a loving wife, mother, and true friend who will be dearly missed.

God Bless

I was so sad to hear about your Mom's passing. I recently was talking with Ed about your Mom and didn't know she was sick.



I'm sure your Mom was so proud of all of her children and grandchildren and for all of you to have such a wonderful Mom is one of the greatest blessings in life.



Sincerely,

Kate Truslow(Capriotto)

To all of Jeanette's wonderful family,

There is nothing more to say except how sorry I am that you have to feel the pain of this loss. She was like a mother to me also and I loved her sense of humor. She'll be making God and Eddie some pizzelles this Christmas. You are all in my prayers!

Love to you all!

So sorry to hear of your loss. Couldn't believe the announcement this morning at Church after just talking to Jack about your mom on Friday.She was a nice lady and I can only help but remember how she gave me a "little" wack on the back of the head on her way up to Communion when she thought we hadn't made her kitchen drawer yet. Great sense of humor and always friendly - she will be missed! See you t'morrow.

Dear Simoncelli Family,

So sorry to hear about Jeanette. I have been trying to keep updated by Laina on her progress. I remember as a little girl Jeanette driving down Eden Street, beeping or stopping by to see us and our family visiting at their home for parties and such. She even came to my wedding. My Mom and Dad were very close with Jeanette & Eddie and their family. My Mom and & used to ride the bus with Anna downtown for work. So sorry Anna. They are all such dear people. You will all be in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless.
