Rosann was the most wonderful mother to all of her children. Her marriage to Sal was one for the Story Books. They were inseparable.
I always envied the most loving marriage that to this day I have never seen such loving closeness. They were TRULY AS ONE!
They did everything together. Played tennis together for as long as I can remember at Westwood Country Club where there eldest daughter (Carla) had her Wedding reception.
Their daughter Carla was not only my closest best friend but my sister. Loyal, kind and so so special. After meeting her parents when I was very young it became obvious how she came to be such a Pillar for all to look up to.
Her other siblings, both Andrew and Nicky...they also inherited their goodness from their parents. I know this is a late condolence but it's important that I do memorialize Roseann and her loving husband Sal. The best of the best.
With much love,
Pegge Ann Caccavari
