Donna
Mom and I are broken hearted over the loss of Bobby. Mom always tells people even today about Donna and Bobby and the trip in Las Vegas. Great memories and of course she loved working with you at Stop and Shop for lots of years.
Mom and I would love to get together. You took care of Bobby through thick and thin for better or worse. You were a wonderful wife.
We love you. May Bobby RIP
Love Martha Amendola and Sharon
