Dear Pellegrino and family,
So sorry for your loss. Fond memories of Patty with get-togethers at my grandmothers, Angelina Melillo. Patty was very special to her.
Sincerely,
Claudia Perfetto Guy
Maria I'm so sorry to hear about your mom. I'm here if you need anything. You are a great mother; wife and daughter.
Dear Sorrentino Family,
I am so sorry for your loss, please accept my sincere condolences at this time. Something that I have found to be a great source of comfort are the thoughts expressed in the Bible at John 5:28,29 where we see that there is going to be a resurrection of those who have fallen asleep in death. Also at Revelation 21:4 we see that God is going to eliminate all of the causes for why we deal with sorrow, pain and even death itself. It is my sincere hope that these thoughts bring your family comfort at this time. Once again I am so sorry for your loss.
I am very sorry for your loss. May Gods promise through his word be your comfort.
Revelations 21 : 3,4 & 2 Corinthians 1 : 3,4.
Maria , I am deeply sorry for the loss of your Mom. She was a beautiful lady. I know you have many memories of your Mom. She will always be in your heart. May God watch over you and your family at this time. If you need anything I am here. love you
Sorry for your loss
Maria & Vito,
Our words could never fulfill in a million years your loss, but all we want you to know is that you have some friends, maybe not the ones you see on a daily bases, but a kind of friends that are and will be here for you forever to come. Your mom is now in, as we all call it, a better place, leaving you and all the loved ones behind, but it is only temporary because one day sooner or later you will all gather again, in a different matter in a different way but the encounter will happen. For now keep her memories alive, because it will be the only way to keep her in your hearts alive an poaitively present… Just close your eyes and remember her in a day like today, the New Year's Eve.. Cheer in her name and keep her name up high, that will bring joy not only to her that just departed but also to you and your family that will be missing here deeply. Raise a glass of her favorite drink for this holiday season and pull out of your heart the greatest memories you hold with her… You'll see how much more tolerant this will be. Cry because is sad to loose the most important piece of your puzzle, but don't cry her forever because I'm sure your mom wouldn't want to see you like that. We mean it and we are here for you. Our apologies for not making it to the funeral nor the wake, but we will come to see you at home… We promise! With all our love to you and your family, Kevin, Cecilia, Jack & Vanessa Shea
