Dear Luciano & Rosina and all the Pellerito and Como families, we are very sad to hear of Nina’s passing. I have fond memories of Nina as a child, growing up in Windsor.



We are sorry that we cannot be there with you at this time. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your families.



We will be honored to contribute to Frank Jr.’s education fund. May God bless Nina and may they both watch over Francesco.

To our cousin, Francesco:

Words cannot describe the sadness we feel for you and for Uncle Frank. A mother's love can never be replaced but know that we are here for you, just pick up the phone and call. Remember through out the years ahead that Zia Nina will always be with you, just close your eyes and feel her arms wrapped around you and know that you are not alone. We love you. Anything you need let us know.
