Dear Anthony, Angela, Silvia & Family,

I´m so sorry for your loss. I have warm memories of your family visiting us when we were younger-those moments really stayed with me. Your mother was always kind and gracious, and I know how deeply she loved her family.

Please know we are all thinking of you all during this difficult time and sending my heartfelt condolences. May her memory bring you comfort and continue to live on in each of you.

Warmly,
Mirella & The Carbone Family
