I was sad to hear about Norma's passing.
It made me remember ages ago when the Angelino clan would gather for weddings, graduations and birthday parties way back when in Buffalo.

Dianne, I always think of your mom in the kitchen in Indian Ridge, cooking up a storm as we sat in front of the TV watching the Beatles on Ed Sullivan. I know her ill health affected her greatly in her later years, but that's how I remember her--a funny, Italian lady who was a great cook. Please give my sympathy to Annette, Erika, and the rest of the family.

Dearest Family: I will always remember Norma for the 'blue chevy' I bought from her to get me to and from college. The car, passed on from one Norma to another Norma, treated me to alot of college fun. Our love and prayers to all; and as you look out tonight, another star will shine brightly down on you. Love Norma, Jim and family
