Dear Gussie and Mary,
My family sent me clippings about your father. I remember him as an Italian Leprechaun! It was lovely to have seen him last december in OP, and both of you with your families, after so many years, He clearly adored you all!

Dear Georgie & Mastrantonio Family:

I am so sorry to hear about "Poppy".
I will always have fond memories of him and how proud he was of all his girls. I only lived next door to you for 7 years, but those were the best years of my life, living next to the Mastrantonio family, and will always be remembered.
With Deepest Sympathy & Love, Lindsay DeJohn

Dear, dear friends...I was so sorry to hear about your dad's passing. Your mom and dad were always my favorites and I feel like a deep part of my childhood and my life is gone.
Sorry I couldn't be there to give you all hugs but my mom (Rose) said that you had a great picture from the old Unison Club days.
Hugs to all of you and to you Mary Ann. I'm glad I got to see you and "Blubber" once in awhile in the last few years.
Much love and fond memories,

George, I was very sadden to hear about your Dad. I feel your heartache in that I know how close you were to Poppy. I'm sorry that I couldn't make it to the wake but I wanted you to know that I'm thinking about you and your family. I think about your Dad driving to his favorite place and having a good laugh.

Dearest Gussie and Family,
I was so sorry to hear of your loss.I only met your mom and dad once when we stopped by your house before yet another costume fitting. Both your parents were so warm and welcoming! Every time I visit my parents' grave at Mt.Carmel I always stop by your mom's headstone and say a little prayer to watch over you. My family plot (Muscato) is only two graves behind. Now, your mom and dad are together and I am sure they are both sending their love. Once again, my deepest sympathies.
Love from your "Andrew" sister.

Dear Mastrantonio Family,
We are so sorry to hear about your loss. We all loved your Mom & Dad and have so many fond memories of when our families would get together. It's not everyday that you meet people that have had lifetime friendships like our parents had, over 60 years. My Mom was so proud of that...how she loved your folks. They are all together again and I'm sure they are having a wonderful time catching up on things! Your Dad was a blessing to know, always so much fun. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
The family of Uncle Tony & Aunt Julie (Oscar Mayer) Garreffa...

How sorry to hear of your loss. Your dad was a friend of my parents long before I had the pleasure of meeting him. I always enjoyed seeing him at church, the gas station, or the grocery store. He was such a jovial man who was extremely proud of his family and spoke about them often. He will be missed, but it is nice to know he is back with his beloved Mary.

My deepest condolences to the entire family. I didn't know the family, but I'm a big fan of Mary Elizabeth. She's a stunning actress. I'm so sorry about your dad. My prayers are with the whole family at this sad time. God Bless You.
