To the whole Criscuolo/Chieppo family, I am very sorry to hear about the passing of Aunt Dottie.
I will always remember Aunt Dottie sitting at the picnic table, under the huge Maple tree with Uncle Louie, Uncle Mickey, Aunt Marie, Grandpa Fred, Aunt Rea, and company. They were the foundation of the Criscuolo side of my family, during our Summer picnics at mom and dads house. In loving memory of such a wonderful person.
