Dear Gia and family,

I was SO sad to learn the news about your mom from Barbara Raho last night. I have such fond memories of her from our college days...I only wish I had known earlier so I could have attended the service. Please know that I am thinking of you, and your entire family during this difficult time.
With deepest sympathy, Marie Shlora Misisco

Hola from Puerto Rico dear Gia...your Mother was always so gracious, welcoming and engaging whenever I came to your house, when we began our friendship at Villa Maria. Your Mother will continue to be your biggest advocate, a best friend, and with you always...constantly watching over you and your family. My thoughts are with you, my friend, over these difficult days.

Uncle Russ, Russell, Gia and Andrew, I am saddened to hear of Aunt Monica's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Aunt Monica and I shared the love of tennis. She always encouraged me to play. (I should have listened!) She was truly a kind and loving aunt. She will be missed. Andrew Burns (Philadelphia, PA)
