Dear Lori and Rob, I've had the pleasure of growing up with your family on Laurel Hill and I have the fondest memories of your entire family. Your Mom made the BEST Italian dinners and we had so many occasions at your house. I was a regular house guest as a kid if not part of the family especially on holidays. My sincerest condolences and deepest sympathies for you and your families. Know that your Mom is in heaven with friends, especially with Eddie and Gerry. My love you all and peace be with you. Charlie

Rob and family - so sorry for the loss of your mom. I have fond memories of her as a band parent with my mother back when we were in high school.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort. Though we knew of her illness, her upbeat attitude led us to believe she would make it and we would visit her when she got home. We talked many times on the phone but did not make it to see her. The thing that struck us the most was her seeing her sister before she died which gave her so much happiness and peace. She is now going to give her husband a piece of her mind for leaving her without making it to their 50th wedding anniversary. She wants a place by the shore in heaven. We think god will give it to her. Cousin Arthur and Carol Gilmore
