On this Holy Season of the Christ Child and New Year, we can't think about those we have been missing and are with Our True Risen LORD ... our hearts are heavy, yet our spirit rejoices in pray and meditation .... GOD Bless Aunt Lu & Uncle Chet ... and all family  friends!

Those we love don't go away, they walk beside us every day.
Unseen, unheard, but always near; still loved, still missed and very dear.

Forever in this heart of mine, an everlasting bond, for now until the end of time, are memories so fond.

Missing you everyday Nana! Love you always, Alyssa, Ron and Ella

To Honor The Life & Legacy of Aunt Lucy (Lancellotta)-Lemme
__________________________

This world is way too short and seemingly,so sadly connected in such a human way, that the people that we have trusted, cared so much about and have always been so nice, are extraordinarily missed when our Dear Lord needs their presence.

Aunty Lu, obviously our existing world will be much different to not have you available or readily approachable to chat, share a holiday greeting or that special time of birthdays and the many meaningful events family and friends want to exchange and enjoy.

You were so close to my / our own Mom (your sister-in-law, Mary) over the years, especially when she would visit with you and Uncle Chet along with daughter, Linda (and later her own family of Billy, Alyssa & Mat) and our entire Pontiac Village Family. Those years were so poignant with Uncle Chet being ill, nephews Jimmy sick too and Joey needing so much attention and Dad (brother, Joe always working) and we all benefited from being as close as possible in caring for one another as an integrated family.

When I / we heard of your leaving it was so shocking, obviously painful, yet the sense to keep a strong bond in our hearts with you, our overall family and Our True Lord & Saviour.

Please remember us through this eternity as we certainly have you (and Uncle Chet) in our hearts, thoughts and prayers, let us hold strong with our own challenges and circumstances and ask Our Blessed Risen Lord & God to protect your legacy, maintain our remembrances and memories and always have a kind and loving presence of you in our lives.

With Deepest Feelings of Love and Eternal Commitment,

Nephews, Jack, Joey & (Jimmy) Lancellotta
