I was saddened to hear today of Mrs. Cumbo´s passing, and send my deepest condolences to her children, grandchildren, and other loved ones. I had the joy of knowing Marie Cumbo through her daughter Michelle. When we were teenagers and in college, she would spoil Michelle´s friends with the most extraordinary cookie care packages, and she was such warm and welcoming host to all of us. She raised a family of brilliant, talented, compassionate children, too! In addition to her culinary talents, Marie was a creative crafter. I am looking right now at a beautiful throw-blanket that she crocheted for me as a gift one year-I´ve kept it for 30 years, because her workmanship was so exceptional. Godspeed, Mrs. Cumbo; the choir of angels is blessed to have you in its ranks.
