To The Andrilli Family,

We wanted to let you know that we were thinking of and praying for you. After a year, I am sure that a day doesn't pass, that you don't wish that "Dad" was there. I pray that with time it has gotten a little easier. This year was difficult for you,(with the many losses surrounding you). Remember that he will always be alive in your memories. There is a piece of him in each of you! God Bless!

"HELP FOR THE SORROW"

You're enveloped in such incredible sadness

when your loved one is gone from your sight.

Such heartache from the feeling of emptiness

You can't imagine how you'll ever survive.

One day you see a Rainbow or a Butterfly,

such magnificant beauty beyond compare.

Special reminders of GOD's eternal Love.

Your faith helps you see the divine care

given with such love from our Father above.

Life on earth is just a brief moment in time.

Look beyond life's heartache and pain to see

GOD's eternal, unconditional love that shines.

See your loved one with our Lord Jesus eternally

and know they are a part of you for all time.

Dear Stephen, Ene, Barbie and Tom,
Our prayers are with you at this very difficult time. Loosing Dad, was difficult for us. We completely understand your sadness. There is truth in the statement, "With time comes some healing." Allow your Faith to comfort you. It will! Keep your memories close to your heart (Anniversaries, Weddings, Sunday Afternoons, Parties, Holidays etc...) Know that your Dad loved you and is truly happier now (without any suffering)! We will keep you (and other family members) in our prayers. God Bless! Love, Lisa, Larry, Matthew, Adam, Nicholas and Joshua

Dear Cynthia,
Please accept my condolences on the loss of your Pop-Pop. I will always admire the wonderful and kind person that he was, and specially the father that he was to you. Your Pop-Pop was a person that I personally feel honored to have known, and he was a person that I know would have done anything for you and anyone in your life. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers, and he will always be remembered in our hearts. “Bacon and eggs” will be missed.

Steve and Ene,
We're so sorry for your loss. I know removing tubes, etc, is a tough decision to make but we did the same for Dad in '88 and it's the kindest thing you could have done for him. He's in a better place now.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

I feel truly blessed to have had the opportunity these past 5 years to get to know Fran (or Frank, as he had me call him) and spend some very special occassions with him and his family. I pray that the people he has left behind find comfort in each other sharing all the wonderful memories with him and in knowing that GOD is here to comfort them, through friends and family.
God Bless, Lisa Kaye

Carol & Cindy,
My deepest sympathy to you on this sad loss. Looking back, he was the most dedicated & loving pop-pop & Father. I'm sure it was really special having him live next door--always close to you.
May the happy memories warm your heart & give your family strength. I love you both very much.
