Dear Uncle Tony, Victor and Anthony,
Aunt Marie will always have a warm place in our hearts. She was always so kind and generous and full of good humor.
I remember visiting her NYC apartment (with a Murphy bed!) when I was about seven years old. I thought she was the coolest person in the whole world and vowed to move to New York when I grew up.
I also have a vivid memory of driving somewhere in the car and she was in the back seat with me when I was very young. For some reason I was crying and she wiped my tears with a tissue and said, “Oh, let me make sure I get all these and save them for later!” And she carefully folded the tissue and put it in her pocket. It made me laugh.
Of course I have fond memories of her wonderful cooking and the fun we would have at your house when we were all kids.
Sending lots of love to all three of you.
Rosanne, John and Jesse
