To the Squirrell family,
My mother used to tell me about a cousin who is a dancer but it is only recently I found out who this. Please accept my condolences on your loss. It is sad I never got the chance to meet my second cousin. I live in Cornwall England.

I worked with Fiona at Patsy Crucitti & Sons Florist for 12 years. She was such a wonderful and warm person to be around, not to mention funny too. I remember she would always give my daughter who is now 21 years old, a balloon every time she came to visit and she still remembers Fiona doing that for her. She will be missed. Rest in Peace.
From Manoel Silva and family.

To The Squirrell Family,
I am very sorry to learn of the passing of your Dad and Mom. I knew Fiona through Crucitti's and Eric used to help my parents as they aged.
Two nicer people you could not find. God Bless Fiona and Eric.
Warmly, Jacqueline Abbott Haight
