Aunt Mary,
Many years have passed and we still remember all the good times we had with you. Our Aunt, making cookies for the St. Joseph table, making paper flowers and decorating the St. Joseph table, being our Santa, dancing the Tartella at weddings, going to Lincoln Park. You were a friend to everyone you met. One thing I always remember. If I see something on the floor, I always pick it up. You would say, why did that person not pick up the piece of paper. It only takes a minute and things would be cleaner
Love Rosella

Aunt Mary, Aunt Mamie now joined all of you in Heaven. I will always remember our family get togethers on 24th street, weekly, holidays, all of the family showing up. Say hi to my Mom and Dad. Love to all. Rosella

Aunt Mary, You will be missed. We will always remember you playing Santa Claus and always having a cold so we could not guess that you were our Santa Claus. You always said "How's the family and say hello to everyone for me. You were always nice to everyone and always liked going downstairs to exercise. Love Rosella, Diana, Lenny

Aunt Mary was a wonderful, loving person. She always asked, “How’s the family?” and always ended every phone conversation with “Kiss the kids for me.” She prayed for everyone every night and was always concerned about everyone’s health and well being. She will be greatly missed.
