To the family, friends, and anyone who had the pleasure of even meeting Anna Aloi, the most beautiful thing about her was how understanding and kind she was. It was the way she welcomed everyone with open arms and without judgement. She was real in a world where there is so much artificial kindness and niceties. No matter who you were, how long it had been since she saw you, there was always a place for you and a genuine “How are you?” It was never fake or forced. I loved that about her. I still enjoy hearing the memories my husband has of her. He talks of her and her husband being a steady, consistent source of love and security. Grandma Annie was there in his childhood and his adult life when things were difficult for him and seemed to be falling apart. She was there when everything was coming together and going well. I was blessed to have met Grandma Annie, let alone be considered a part of her family. I am beyond grateful for the influence she and her husband had in Joseph’s life. I know my husband is a better man for having the two of them. Although God did not choose to make me a grandchild of hers, he did choose to give me the privilege of marrying her grandson and giving life to one of her beautiful great-grandchildren, Daniel. There is no possible way that a woman like her could ever be forgotten.
With Love,
Amanda Cellini
It has been one year today since you have been gone. We miss your smile! We miss you dearly. There isn’t a day that passes that we do not think about you! We love you! Till we see you again!
