To the Salerno family, my deepest sympathies on the passing of your Mother Joan. May she rest in peace. Now both Joan and Joe will be watching over all as they did throughout their marriage and beyond. Many great memories of Mrs. Sal when we were younger running around the neighborhood with the Salerno household a regular stop. Could always get a game of basketball at that house on the back porch. Mrs. Salerno would always greet us visitors with a warm smile and treated us like one of her own. Mrs. Sal will be missed but great memories will indeed help quell the sorrow of her passing.
