Michelle, I read of your mother's passing in Sunday's paper and the memory of your Mom's lovely face immediately came to my mind. I remember when we were very young, living in my great grandmother's apartment building, going to Sunday dinner at your house. There was course after course with pasta, then meat etc. all with orange soda pop. What I later came to know was a typical Italian feast. What a sweet memory! I saw your Mom as an adult a few times, though I don't remember exactly where, and she was always the same, beautiful, warm, and with an infectious smile. My heartfelt condolences to you. May she rest in peace. Kathy (Golden) Tucker
