To my cousin's Frankie, Dion and Sunshine. Please have my condolences on the passing of your father as he was a 2nd father to me sharing recipes, thoughts and just the ability to speak freely to him was always his superpower. He will be missed. May God grant you peace and comfort during your time of bereavement. With love from me to you all.
