I want to extend my sincere condolences to the Fensore and Cerra families. It was many years ago that Rose Marie and her family were my neighbors on Sawyer Rd. In Fairfield, but I still picture her as a pretty young woman. I remember when she married the very handsome Ralph Fensore, and of course I remember the " Fensore kids". I want the " Fensore kids" as well as Dolores and Joanne to know that I am thinking about them and am very sorry for their loss.

Your parents both touched many lives through the prayer group at St. Jude's Church. I am personally grateful for all the prayers and encouragement they shared with me. My life was forever changed through the prayer group. Surely God welcomed her with open arms and a giant hug saying, "Well done, good and faithful servant!" Be comforted now by the joy she shares in heaven! Love and prayers for all of you.

To the Fensore family, your mom was like my second mom to me.. She fed me and prayed for me like I was her own. She gave me my first Bible. It was through the influence of your parents that brought me to my salvation. Words can not express my feelings for your parents and the time spent at the house growing up. My deepest, most sincere condolences... My prayers and thoughts are with you. God ever keep you during this time. Losing my mom was quite a thing, but I take great comfort in that I know where she is. I'm sure they both are happy together and rejoicing together in His presence. Love to all of you.

Dear Donna and Family:
My prayers go out to you and your family at this time of the loss of your mom. I lost my Dad (whom I loved) in the same way. It is hard for me to share the emotion; but, I wanted to tell you I understand. Your mom (and my dad) are now at peace without disease and pain and are rejoicing with the Lord. Thank you, Jesus! We will never forget them; we will be with them on day...
