Dearest Zandonella Family,
Our prayers and thoughts are with you all for the loss of your loved one. I knew Fosca through my work at Atlas Tree Service, I would see her 1 or 2 times a year. She would always greet me and make me feel special. Always asking about my family. She will be missed by all of us. God Bless.

Fosca will always hold a place in my heart. She was strength to me, a confidante and dear friend. Time came between us and I regret that I did not keep in touch, but the memory of her friendship will always be a blessing.

Dear John,
Our deepest sympathy and sincere condolences to you and your family on the passing of Fosca.
Fosca was a true partner to you, attending association functions, always warm and caring, taking the time to get to know your associates.
My favorite remembrance of Fosca was a time when the restaurant had an Easter buffet; and as a special treat, she would make her Easter bunny jello. She just delighted in making people happy.
May memories of the good times bring comfort to you and your family.
