To the Greco families,
Your mother was such a fun person to be with. I don't ever remember seeing her without a smile on her face. She was such a great friend to my mother and I hope they are having a wonderful reunion in heaven today. She also made the best biscotti I have ever had! Rest in peace, Florence.

Dear Greco Family,
I am so very sorry to hear about the passing of your Mom. She was a wonderful woman who lived a life of love, faith, and sacrifice for those around her; especially for her family. May her loving memories continue to give you all the strength that you may need. She will always be a pleasant memory to me.
My memories of your family while I was teaching at JFK (1971-1976) will always be in my mind. God bless all of you.
