Dearest John, Diana & Family-
With every passing season, our families grow smaller however it is not the size of the family but rather the enrichment and love that comes from one another that make our lives special. Bill was a special person-placed here for only a short time compared to most but made a loving, gentle and sometimes amazingly intuitive impact on all of our lives. Like me, Bill was one of the younger cousins and I always enjoyed a lively card or board game with him. He constantly amazed me with his skill for memorizing facts and figures and never had a cruel word for anyone or anything. My favorite memories besides enjoying our Grandma Stanisci's homemade Italian food was our time we attended the Mets game at Shea Stadium where he bought me my first Major League Pendant which I still have to this day in my hope chest with some other special memoirs of my childhood. Bill, you are in a better place as you share the heavens with angels and others who share your gentle and loving spirit- YOU will be missed-

Love -your Cousin

Bill recently shared a memory with my husband, Paul, which I would like to share. Bill attended his Goddaughter, Denise's wedding in Florida. He said this was the happiest day of his life. He enjoyed his time in Florida with his family more than any other experience in his life. He was grateful to Diana & John. Bill was a special guy. He had the most amazing memory. My deepest sympathy on your loss.

My cousin Bill was a sweet gentle soul. He loved his family and his Italian food! I will always remember eating plums off of grandpa's tree and getting sick! I will miss you Bill, and will see you again one day. Your cousin Diane
