My deepest condolences to you and your family Cathy. I just learned today. I didn't get over to see your mother as often as I'd like but when I did, she was always so gracious. She always made me laugh. I'll miss her.

She was my favorite aunt. I called her Anti Phil. I would stop bye during the day and visit her like I did with my Grandmother. I will truly miss her.
God Bless

Philly,
My heart is broken and my life feels a little emptier knowing you are not here...The one thing I feel good about is knowing you are with Nello and once again together...

I am deeply saddened. I have fond memories of her caring for Kaleb and I when we were young. She was always so kind, patient and generous. I loved her like she was my own grandmother. I pray for strength for the family members left behind.
