I can just see them now, my Father,Aunt Felice and Uncle Joe smoking their cigarettes and wondering what to cook! I'll always remember my uncle Joe with his cowboy boots, cowboy hat and his beautiful gardens. To my cousins may God bless you. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Immediately, I saw what a loving, warm, and beautiful man you were. To Patty, Larry, Sonny and Rick, I send you my deepest sympathies to each one of you. With much love and respect to all of you.
