Nonna was the best! She let me oil paint when I was just six years old. Now I am an artist and it is because of her. She always just told me to do what makes me happy..."Keep painting" and so I do! What can you really say about someone that lives to be 105. Words can never make even a fraction of the impact. I love you, Nonna.

I love you Nonna.
I will always think of you when I see beautiful flowers, because you loved them so much, and they remind me of your beauty, inside and out. I feel very blessed to be one of your many great-granddaughters and to have been able to get to know you these past few years. I will always love you.

Our prayers are with the family as you adjust to life without this ray of light. She will be missed. Her passion for life and art will be what I remember most.

Nonna was one of a handful of special people that I have known in my life that have had a significant influence on me. She told me that "Love is like sunshine, there's plenty of it to go around."
I'll miss you, Nonna. You'll live on forever in my heart and memories. As I told you last Tuesday, "I will see you later". Love always, your Marky.
