Mom was a devoted wife, a nurturing mother, a cherished grandmother, and a dear friend to many. She dedicated her life to her family, always putting the needs of others before her own. Her home was a place of warmth, laughter, and comfort-a true sanctuary for all who entered.
Her wisdom and guidance shaped us into the people we are today. She taught us the importance of compassion, resilience, and simple joys in life. Whether through her delicious home-cooked meals, her heartfelt advice, or her unwavering support, she showed her love in countless ways every single day.
Mom enjoyed gardening, cooking, listening to her favorite Italian music, going to the casinos, and spending time with family and friends. Her beautiful smile and infectious laughter will forever echo in our memories. The values she instilled, the traditions she created, and the love she gave will be cherished and carried on by all who were fortunate to know her.
While our hearts are broken, we take comfort in knowing she is now at peace and watching over us with the same love and care she gave us in life.
