When James was born, I didn´t have to ask the nursery which baby was an Avitabile. He was the one who had his blanket down revealing his solid, strong shoulders. In an instant I knew him. He was so beautiful and grew into a handsome man. His tragic death shook his family´s world. Very sad. He was so loved.
With love and gratitude for all the years our families shared great times together.
You loved Jerry Seinfeld!

Love, yours forever, Auntie Patti
