Dear friends,

Your Mom was one of our favorites. She had an infectious sense of humor that belied the strong and serious expession of her faith. Not only was she the wife of my classmate and we would see her from time to time at our class breakfasts, but I saw her daily at daily Mass before she could no longer attend.

She and your Dad are certainly not gone: Their hard work and good guidance are living through all of you. You were fortunate to have had them as parents and they were blessed to have had all of you as children.

Our prayers are for her deserved repose and for your strength to endure the empty days ahead without her.

Caesar and Lynda Carrino
