Well Happy Birthday Poppi five days late but I still wanted to say it. I was reading your cookbook with all your stories and recipes yesterday and it really made me miss you. Everyday I look at the date tattooed to my arm and everyday it makes me think of you. With this tattoo I will be reminded of you and your love for everyone around you every single day. I miss and love you so much Poppi. I will always be your Buddy
Love Matt

Three years have gone by already since you were called away. Days come and go, there have been happy times, there have been fun times, there have been times full of anxiety and worry and there have been empty times because you're gone. Sometimes I cry, sometimes I laugh thinking of days gone by but mostly I miss you dearly my brother. Till !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Memorial Day is upon us my Brother, your favorie spot Oaklawn Beach is in full swing. Physically you are not here, but not a day goes by my dear brother, that I do not hear your laughter, I do not see your smile and yes at times I can even hear your yelling when on one of your tirades. To have one wish, even for a minute it would to be to have you back with Mom and Dad for one last cookout, one last laugh and one last hug and kiss. Say hello to all, Grandparents, Aunts and Uncles as they look down from above with pride and love on the generation they produced.

Love You
Your Sister Marilyn

Bob, My older brother, 2 years have passed, I miss you more and more with the passing of time. Days fly by quickly, the good old times are gone, as I look back on the memories of times gone by, I laugh to my self with tears in my eyes just wishing I could have just one more day to laugh with you, play cards with you and eat your gourmet cooking, my brother the self made chef. Our family has always been a circle of strength, love and compassion and with each memory of generations before us it was a tie that bound us together. I am now the tie to the past and I intend to help the memories last forever. We started off as brother and sister separated by ten years in age, together we became friends ready to face whatever life sent. Joy and laughter or tears and strife , we held hands tightly as we danced through life and I know our journey on earth has ended and what the future has in store I do not have a clue, but I do know that the day will come when brother and sister again we will be holding hands tightly , a family again.

i love you poppi

Well it has been a year an a half and with Grandma Helen passing it has made me think of you and all of the things you said and did. It still hasent gotten easier even though it has been so long everything on the lots and in your home remind me of you so much and how much you loved your family and how much we loved you. I will always be your Buddy, I love you Poppi.

It has been said that days go by fast and time will heal wounds; some days are a constant reminder and some are too fast to even think.
Picking up the phone to tell a funny story or to ask one of my million questions is nonexistent. To hear your Irish mouth, bellowing laugh or infamous "leave the kids alone" statement; it's inaudible. The smell of your gourmet cooking, the sight of your sleeping body on the couch, or the warmth that is felt when you embrace the kids when they walk through the door...it is now unattainable.
The stories you told, the lessons you taught, the impressions you made...those are unforgettable.
There will always be an emptiness in the heart, a void that will never be filled. A sadness that often has a hard time breathing, occasionally inhales a burst of joy. This joy, the memories of you, what you lived for and believed in, is the joy that brings the healing of the wounds. And, it brings me to stop and think more often on those days that are going by too fast. I don't want to forget, ever. I want to remember, and absorb every last detail of my life with you. I want this so I can share it with the kids, so they never forget. So, they can know you and hear your stories and learn from your lessons and be impressed with you. Because you were an unforgettable individual and I will always love you for that.

It is hard to believe it's a year already



As We Look Back

As we look back over time
We find ourselves wondering .....
Did we remember to thank you enough
For all you have done for us?
For all the times you were by our sides
To help and support us .....
To celebrate our successes
To understand our problems
And accept our defeats?
Or for teaching us by your example,
The value of hard work, good judgement,
Courage and integrity?
We wonder if we ever thanked you
For the sacrifices you made.
To let us have the very best?
And for the simple things
Like laughter, smiles and times we shared?
If we have forgotten to show our
Gratitude enough for all the things you did,
We're thanking you now.
And we are hoping you knew all along,
How much you meant to us.

We miss you now and always,
Cheryl and Eddie

I was sorry to here of Bob's death. I only learned of it on Friday at the St. Anthony's Feast. I realyy liked Bob for being forth right and honest.
