To all of PAPAs loved ones.I am so sorrow for your loss. I know how hard this is on all of you. I myself will miss him alot. When I would walk in to his house no matter how long it had been since I had seen him He would always great me with a hug,kiss and smile. Then he would ask me where Maureena was.He loved all of you so much. I last saw him about a month ago and I am so glad I did.Without this man I would not have 5 of the most important people in my life. My prayers are with all of you. Lean on each other, and carry him in you hearts. Love Sharon

To the Leo Family......." Our Prayers & Condolences " are extended to you & yours " . May he forever " Rest in Peace "......
" God saw he was getting tired, and a cure was not to be;
So he put His arms around him, and whispered, " Come with me "
With tearful eyes you watched him suffer, and saw him fade away....

Although you loved him dearly, you could not make him stay....
A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands to rest,

God broke your hearts to prove to you, " He onl;y takes the Best "..
Our Prayers Are With You......Brenda & Sheila Carroll & Family...Boston Massachusetts

My prayers for the family and a blessed journey for Sr. Antonio:
Mi rinfranca, mi guida per il giusto cammino,
per amore del suo nome.
Se dovessi camminare in una valle oscura,
non temerei alcun male, perché tu sei con me.
Il tuo bastone e il tuo vincastro
mi danno sicurezza.
