We will all you miss you so much Ziza. You were like a second mother to all of us. You were there throughout my entire life!!! I can't tell you how much you will be missed by all of us. Ben wished he would have got to know you better instead of always seeing you either in the hospital or nursing home. You suffered too much recently and we hated to see you go, but you are no longer suffering now. You are in peace with everyone else that we also miss. Ti amo Ziza.
Love,
Pina & Ben Vitale

Zia, You were an amazing person, loved by all. We watched you suffer in pain for so very long but now you are in a peaceful place with Papa and Linda. I miss you so much. Thank you for being a Mom to me, Anna and Linda. You were the best thing that happen to us. It was an honor to have you in our lives. Rest in peace now Zia. You will never be forgotten. I know you will watch over us because you always had my back when you were with us. I will love you forever. Rosie
