Sal & Ann,

Uncle Tuttie will be missed. I miss him already. Seems like all this happened to quick. I will miss the jokes and all the fun arguing with him. No one can argue like him. His famous cooking will also be missed. I promised him some pea soup when he came home. He's home now and my Grandma Frances is making it for him. May God bless your family thru this hard time. We love you all. Therese & Dana & DePercio kids x.o.
