Dear Joe and Dorothy:
My sympathy to you on the loss of your mother. I remember her friendliness to my Dorothy and I when we would be over on Green working on SP Club projects.
Pray that you have God's comfort at this sad time.

Dear Joe - I read your Mom's obit and wanted to send you and your whole family my condolences. Wow, 98 is a good age. I hope she was in good health for years and didn't have to suffer. My father-in-law just passed March 2 at age 87. It was a blessing as he was in and out of hospitals with cancer and very ill with many other problems that go along with it. Anyway, I called Jo-Ann Giunti tonight but she is unable to attend the funeral as I am but I wanted to let you know how lucky you were to have your Mom for so long. It's never long enough. I was 24 and my Mom 47 when I lost her. I miss our good old SP days. If you have an email, please write me. Would love to keep in touch with you. I hear you and Sue started the Italian faire over in Marin. Would love to attend sometime to see what it is all about. May your Mom rest in peace. Fondly, Claudine Shuey Minasian

We met Emma 13 years ago when she became our landlady, and what an extraordinary landlady she was. We’ll never forget her frequent
kindnesses – allowing our guests to use her parking space, calling to offer us delicious leftovers that often fed us for several nights, giving us candy when we brought her the newspaper, and graciously letting us into
the building countless times when we forgot our keys.
When we first moved in, she was frequently to be heard booming orders to the tow truck driver as he pounced upon any unfortunate cars parked in reserved spaces in her lot. We loved her phone calls: “Kellin! This is Emma! I have some chicken! Do you want it?”
We won’t forget the twinkle in her eyes, her deep chuckle and the way she said certain phrases that were distinctly hers -- “That’s alright,” “What’re you gonna do?”, “How about that.” Nobody else could say those “Emma-isms” with Emma’s mixture of amusement and crusty warmth. Though she lost her physical agility and experienced frequent pain in the last years of her life, Emma never lost her spirit. She was unique, and we won’t meet her like again. We will miss her very much.
With sincere condolences to the Carlomagno family,
Ken & Kellin
