Anita was my friend. When I started Mifflin school in the 7th grade, she coached me to become a cheerleader. We had so much fun. I think of you often and miss you.

My deepest sympathies to Anita's family. I knew Anita from our Mifflin and Allderdice days. We had so many laughs together. She was such a sweet girl, with that beautiful red hair. So sorry for you your loss.

Scott, Denise, and Louie i just heard this evening about Anita. i am so sorry for your loss. She called me when my mom died last Sept and that was when she told me. She came to the funeral and that was the last time I saw her. We had a lot of fun together at Mifflin and Allderdice. We got even closer after graduation. I loved her and always looked up to her. I will miss her so much.

I have fond memories of the days Anita and I spent at school dances, ironing our hair and sporting our bell bottoms back in junior high.
Although it has been years since those days, I will never forget those times spent together and getting to know your family.
My heart and prayers go out to all of you, especially to her son as you grieve the loss of your beloved Anita.
Peace,

I just learned of Anita's passing this morning. Please accept the sympathy of the Melodini family - Armand (Edgo), and his children Joe, Nita, and Dan. Edge and "Tunt" (August) were 1st cousins. That makes us all related. I hadn't seen Anita for a few years and we are very close in age. I'm so very sorry...

My heart goes out to the Napolitano/Kinkead families. Anita and I were not related by blood, but considered each other cousins since my grandmother was her mom's godmother...I will miss her terribly. Scotty, you were the light in her eyes..my prayers and thoughts are with you at this time of sadness...

I think I was a classmate of hers at Mifflin Elementary and Taylor Allderdice H.S. She was a very nice girl and young lady.I liked her a lot especially the fact that she thought the "Rolling Stones" were a lot better band than the "Beatles"! She really went against the tide back in '65. God Bless.

Aunt Nida was such a blessing to this world and to our family. We will miss her so much, every day, for the rest of our lives. She was such a beautiful person on the inside and out. Aunt Nida was such a wonderful mother to Scott and an amazing aunt, daughter, sister, person, and friend. Our family and her friends will keep Aunt Nida's memory alive forever. Rest in peace. Aunt Nida was a very special person with the biggest heart. I love you and miss you so much already, Aunt Nida. Scott is going to make you so very proud.
