Dear Magda,
Tomorrow being Mother's day brings a thought of you to mind. I am in touch with your family members and still feel your presence very strong. In my eyes, you have not gone. You are still very alive. You guide us and give us strength from above.
During your time on Earth, you were more Angel than Human, this is why you are there and we are here.
Your children are doing well, thanks to all the support they have, and the wonderful family that makes sure this is so....... but you know that;-)
The beauty of being a GREAT MOM is that our teachings go on way past our lifetimes, So, I am comfortable in wishing you a HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY because you were, and still are a great MOM.

Tua sempre, Annamaria e fam.

Cara Magda,
Non solo hai lasciato i tuoi cari nel dolore ma anche noi risentiamo il vuoto e la grande tristezza della tua mancanza.
La tua vita, anche se breve, ha toccato tutti, con la tua dolcezza, la tua bontà e il tuo inestimabile sorriso che resterà sempre con noi.
La tua vita, vissuta intensamente con grande coraggio e determinazione ci lascia l'immagine di un'anima bella e sublime che ci ha appena sfiorato.
Sarai amata quaggiu come lo sarai in cielo e a Dio rivolgeremo le nostre preghiere affinché la tua presenza sarà sempre viva tra di noi.

Cara Magda,
Ci hai lasciato nel piu profondo dolore, sia i tuoi cari, che gli amici, con un grande messaggio da cui tutti dobbiamo riflettere ''offrendo le tue sofferenze a Gesu'', tu cosi piccola e fragile fisicamente, ma grande spiritualmente. Solo una persona speciale come te poteva farlo, soffrendo in silenzio, fiduciosa e tranquilla perché hai creduto nella bonta e misericordia di Gesu. Sentiamo molto la tua mancanza, ma poi siamo felici sapendoti in paradiso continuando a proteggere i tuoi cari.

Dearest Riccardo,
Never would I have imagined this scenario, never would I have imagined not knowing what to say to you. However, I do believe that the love the two of you still share gives you the strength you need to go on until you can meet again. In my heart she is not gone, every time I look at your children I see both of you.
My thoughts are often with you, your parents, and your extended family.

Carissima Magda,
A perfetta imitazione di Maria,sei piccola ma tanto grande, umile ma tanto coraggiosa, fragile ma cosi forte. Il Signore ti ha voluta tutta per se e come non capirlo. Sei preziosa e speciale tanto piu' per Lui di quanto tu possa esserlo per tutti noi.
Ci mancherai,Magda, ci mancheranno la tua dolcezza, la tua tenerezza ma anche la tua determinazione, la tua voglia di vivere e quella luce bellissima che brilla nei tuoi occhi.
Siamo sicuri che la nostra tristezza, il nostro avvilimento, il vuoto che hai lasciato si trasformeranno in gioia, festosita' nei Cieli per il tuo arrivo. Cara, meravigliosa stupenda Magda, festeggia anche per noi.
Patrizia, Nico, Elisa, Emanuela

Magda,even though i never met you,i know what your family is going through especially your two little angels,i know that you can`t be there in person,but i also know that from up above you are watching and protecting them and you always will.
I lost my mom when i was sixteen month old,i do not remember her but i know that she guided me through all my life,i always felt her presence close to me and i`m sure your little angels will too.

Cara e ineguagliabile Magda,Inarrestabile in me la vita scorre ancora. E Tu non ci sei.Questo autunno é meraviglioso.E Tu non ci sei. Ci sono la tua casa, il tuo amore,i tuoi bimbi, i tuoi cari. E Tu non ci sei.Le note di un pianoforte aleggiano nell'aria. E Tu non ci sei. La tua casa ha una veranda, una terrazza, un focolare, che Tu amavi tanto! E Tu non ci sei. Il tutto é; ma non Te. Poi guardando, in alto mi son detta: MAGDA é. Sei nell'azzurro di questo cielo infinito dove famiglia,casa,amore, si dileguano in Te, per raggiungere, con l'attimo supremo il paradiso.
P.S. Oggi, ho pregato ed ho ritrovato il tuo sorriso, SORRIDI ANCHE TU! Gianna

Cara Magda, oggi è la festa di San Francesco, quel santo che abbiamo voluto festeggiare e onorare, insieme a Giose, Annamaria e tanti altri giovani, sul palco della Chiesa quel lontano 1991. Sono sicura che Francesco si sta congratulando con te per il tuo splendido lavoro di direttrice del musical sulla sua vita "Forza Venite Gente" e per aver aperto molti cuori, tra cui il mio, all'esempio di vita come incarnazione del Vangelo che lui ci ha lasciato. Ad un mese dal tuo trapasso alla vita eterna il tuo sorriso, come sigillo dell'amore di Cristo, mi riempie gli occhi della mente e la tua risatina, le orecchie ed il cuore. Inutile dire che ci manchi ma la memoria di te è così viva che sembra di averti qui.
Tua sempre, Patrizia

C'è un filo conduttore nelle parole di chi ha scritto prima di me: la gioia, la fede e la generosità di Magda erano contagiose. Sono sicura che abbia lasciato un segno in tutte le persone che ha conosciuto. E queste persone vivranno contagiando altri. Come spero di fare anche io. E come sono certa faranno Roberta, Gianluca e Riccardo.

Carissima Magda, ti scrivo solo adesso forse perché non riesco ancora a capacitarmi della tua scomparsa. Non mi dimenticherò mai delle giornate passate insieme (sin dal “summer camp”!!)…le chiacchierate, le risate, e soprattutto quel tuo sorriso che riusciva a sconfiggere ogni timore che mi assaliva. La tua fede mi ha aiutata a trovare la mia fede quando l’avevo trascurata, in un momento molto difficile per me. Non sai quanto, in quei pochi pomeriggi trascorsi insieme, sei riuscita ad aiutarmi.
You were a role model as a person, a woman, a wife and a mother… For this, and for so much more, I thank you, and I miss you!
For Ricky, Gianluca, Roberta, and the entire Cacchione family, you are in my thoughts, my heart, and my prayers… may Magda’s love for you shine and guide you through this difficult time.
Sabry

I had the chance to work with Mme Magda at General Vanier. Together we had planned dances and songs for graduation and had future projects in mind. She always had great ideas . She loved the children and considered each and every one of them as musicians. She will always be part of our memories. My deepest sympathies to the family.

J'ai eu le plaisir de recevoir Magda comme stagiaire en musique à l'école La Dauversière. Je croyais en ses aptitudes, en son charisme, en sa passion pour la musique et les jeunes. J'étais fière d'elle.
Je suis très heureuse de l'avoir rencontrée. Récemment, je parlais de toi, Magda. Et je parlerai encore de toi.
J'offre mes sincères condoléances à ta famille.

I had the pleasure of having "Miss Magda" as an italian teacher when she was first starting her career, she was kind loving and inspirational all that a teacher should be. Today, I am an adult and a mother of two, yet I still remember what a wonderful person she was. My deepest sympathies and prayers go out to her family and loved ones. May God be with you always. Magda, the heavens are lucky to have an angel such as you.

Miss Magda was a very special teacher who brought so much joy into our music class. When I began taking piano lessons she always encouraged me and was there for me if I needed help. I will always remember her and her kind words she wrote in my yearbook, June 2005.
"Keep the wonderful music in your heart and let it play where ever you go".

Dear Miss Magda,
You taught me to love my music class, you showed me how to use my body to make beautiful music. I will always remember how our 4th grade class at Augustin Roscelli School performed Vivaldi's Four Seasons by clapping and slapping different parts of our body. It was so much fun and it sounded great too. Every time I hear The Four Seasons it makes me think of that moment and of what a great teacher you were.
I will always remember you, for the joy and laughter you brought in our class and even after all these years I still remember your smile and how kind you were.
I find it hard to think how much your family will miss you. I find it hard to think you are no longer here.
September 5, 2007
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
"Miss Magda" will remain in our hearts forever.

Words cannot express the loss we are all feeling of Magda's passing. My memories of her are with a beautiful smile (a twinkle in her eyes, of course) expressing her love of music either singing, directing or playing. Fond memories that I have are at her home, a play date, with her children and my own (between the ages of 2 and 4), making music with a variety of instruments.
To Riccardo, Roberta and Gianluca, and to Magda's extended family, I can only imagine the heaviness in your hearts. May God give you strength in this very difficult time. God bless you all!
