I only wish we could have been closer and been in contact with each other. Aunt Helen was always kind to me.
Love you all

My Dad had already been the Sambucettis' life and health insurance agent for years when I started in the business in the late 80's. Going to see the Sambucetti's at Wesco was more like visiting extended family than a business call. Mrs. Sambucetti had such a motherly way about her and was always such a joy to visit with. A very special Lady.

I was only four years old when Aunt Helen married Uncle Gene. I remember her unique voice, and how nice she always was to us. I last saw her at my Mom's funeral, many years ago. She was an incredible woman. To all my Sambucetti cousins and their families, I send my sincerest condolences.
