I haven't seen Luciana since High School, but she was always a fun loving and happy person. I can remember how she had been so shy at first, being the new girl, but she came out of her shell and was so friendly. My heart and prayers go out to her family and I am so sorry for your loss.

Dear Luciana,

Although I was very young when I met you, it saddened me to hear of you and your son's tragic passing. It was only a few days after my dad had passed, so it hurt all the more. Now you're with him, and other family. My dad will help you with Frankie. He was a great father. The best I ever met. May you and your son Rest In Peace.

I'm so saddened to hear of your passing. My husband passed a few days before you, so now you both will be in heaven. look for each other, and Rich will help you with little Frankie. He loves children and it will give him something to do when he misses his own children.
R.I.P. Your passing was very tragic and broke everyone's hearts.

I worked with Luciana at walmart and though I only new Luciana for a short period of time in that time she touched my heart. I thought of her as a dear friend. I was very shocked when I went to work and heard the horrible news that her and her child were lost in the fire. I cannot say anything that will make it better. All I can say is that god was waiting for them with his arms open. I pray that he now opens his arms to help the family deal with such a terrible loss. I am going to miss her great personality and that wonderful full bodied laugh she had. But most of all I am going to miss the moments we shared talking and being friends. We had planned to get together over the summer but things happened and we were unable to do so. She and her son are going to be missed so much. She spoke to me almost everyday I saw her about her wonderful son. She loved him soo much and she was a great mom. He was her light. I am glad that they have each other. God Bless their entire family.

I EVEN SEARCHED FOR LUCIANA ON LINE THIS YEAR AND LAST YEAR-B/C WE HAD BEEN OUT OF TOUCH-AND I WAS REALLY MISSING HER. I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS NEWS-IT'S JUST TERRIBLE. I'M SO SORRY. MAY GOD HEAL YOUR PAIN AND GUIDE YOU THROUGH THIS TOUGH TIME. I WILL PRAY. LOVE, CHLOE LONGOBARDO MORENO.
