Nonna will be truly missed. She is one of those people who showed love and respect to anyone she came in contact with. I thought she would be around forever. That thinking makes it hard to let go. Our condolences to the family.

Nonna was my next door neighbor at River Hills several years ago. She was a great friend to myself and my mom and godmother to one of my daughters. I had lost touch with her over the years but always remembered her with much love. I was deeply saddened to hear of her passing. Heaven has another Angel to watch down on us. Love and prayers to Tony and her family.

There is no hurt that God can not heal, No sorrow that he can not remove. Though your heart is heavy right now in due season the burden will get lighter. The loss will never be forgotten. My heart aches right now because of the absences of Nonna's presence. Yet I know God always knows what's best in every situation. To Tony, Pop's and all the kids. I love you and she will never be forgotten in my heart. Though I can not see her I know she is still there. I am praying for you and God's constant dwelling in your lives. God Bless You!!
