Dear Bev,
I am so sorry to hear of Mr. Bartolotta's (Dad's) passing. I spent so many weekends at your house on Warner Rd, I think he assumed you adopted another kid when he was at work. He always had a such a warm, kind smile. I have thought of you both with fondness many, many times over the years. Some of the happiest memories of my childhood involve you, Dad and April.
April, I know how much the loss hurts. Nothing I say will ever take that pain away. You will always feel the loss, but as the pain eases the beautiful memories surface and help you heal.
I am sending you both hugs and kisses from NH.
Xoxoxo, Tina (Mudgett) Fecteau
