Dear Ralph -
I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your dear Lillian - I have been thinking about her lately, and am saddened to hear of her passing... I am so sorry to have missed seeing you last week at the Funeral home. I hope you find peace in your long and adventurous life together. I will miss her, her cranberry bread at Christmas and hearing of past and present adventures and trips. I am sograteful I knew her - she brought great joy to my work in the massage room.
warmly, Sydney Lohan

Dear Ralph,
My heart is broken about Lillian. I don't even have the right words to say. We all loved her, especially my girls. Lilian always fussed over them and made them feel special. I am so sorry that I will not be able to make the wake, I just got out of the hospital and am still having breathing problems. I send my love and prayers to help you through this. Love, Madeline Barillo

I loved Lillian. I remember when Ralph first introduced her to our family. We were all so happy. She was one of the sweetest people. She was a natural born dancer who moved with the grace of sunlight. She was someone special and will be missed greatly. We are better for having known her.

Uncle Ralph,
I am so sorry that I cannot be there with you and I am praying for you and for Aunt Lilliana, who is, I know, reunited with family and loved ones who have gone before her. When I think of Aunt Lilliana, I think of her beautiful smile and her love for you. Know that I am with you in spirit. Love, Donna
