Nicole,
I'm so sorry to hear about your mom. I never even knew she was sick. I used to see her all the time in Carcieri's. My sincerest condolences.

Dear Janice (Mrs Claus), Melanie, Nick, and Gianna - My thoughts and prayers are with you and your entire family. This is a tragic and sudden loss. I was unable to attend the services because I was out of town on business, but my heart and thoughts were there with you all. Nicky and I will stop in to visit you soon. God Bless.

To Danny, Janice, and the entire Capaldi Family:

I and my mom send our deepest condolences on the loss of Paula. Mom and I can fully 'empathize' with you and feel terrible about your loss. I personally knew her as a very young girl and to lose someone at 47 isn't the way this is supposed to be at all.

Know that I am thinking of you all and hope that time will heal the hurt that I am sure you all are feeling. I do know it gets easier but your lives are now forever changed.....as mine has been.

May God be with you all at this most painful time. I send my love to the entire Capaldi Family.

I am so very sorry for your tragic loss. Please feel free to contact me (listed in book) I recently lost my teenage daughter tragically in car crash 1/25/08. She was beautiful inside and out. I like to think of her either in heaven with all the interesting and wonderful people who I both knew and did not have the pleasure. Or on assignment as an angel. Sincerely I hope to bring you comfort.
