Dear Family,
Although time and travels have set us apart there is one thing that keeps us together. I find myself now relying on this very human trait, in which I do not often use. When I heard of my cousins passing I began to cry. Carmeno and I haven’t been in touch with each other for many years, for that matter nor his family. I will always remember his smile, his swagger and his children.
Carol I send all my love and prayers in your time of loss. To his children my deepest condolences. To all his brothers and their families my heart goes out to you all. Let me end by telling you that trait; memories, thank you Carmeno for all you have graced me with.

Love always,
Cousin Chuck

Dear Carol, Gina, Carmen, & Micheal,
We were so sorry to hear of Carmeno's passing. I myself will always remember playing when we were kids, and working for Carmeno and Uncle Joe Boscia. He worked us hard, but for a real good reason. It was to make us tough and strong,and to grow up with respect. We may have never seen Carmeno much, but it didn't mean that we did't Love him. I Love all my cousins and family, even if we never see each other often as we wish to.
Cousin, you are now home with God and Auntie Vee, and Uncle Joe, and nephew Anthony Boscia. We are all sadden, but as you have built all the homes for us here, you now can build them for God ,as he did too. We will miss you, but all the memories will be in our hearts forever. That is the greatest gift, you have left us with. Auntie Connie cries with tears, and it hurts me to see her like that. She Loved you very, very, much. But in the end we will all be together in Gods home and we will be with each other once again.
I hope this little note comforts you all and our Prayer's are with you always....
Love & Kisses,
Cousin, Johnny Laurenzo
