Dearest Cousins
Our entire family joins you in your grieving the loss of your treasured “Mother.”
She was a wonderful “Aunt” and full of love for everyone. She was so very proud of her family. Her smile could light up a room when she entered. It’s no wonder how each time
spent together felt so special. She knew how to make memories for all of us.
We’re all so very blessed to have had her in our lives.
May she rest in peace…….
“Ti Amo Sempre” Dearest Auntie,
You will forever remain in our hearts,
Paulette, Kent and family
