John,
We are so saddened to know of your mom’s passing. Please accept our deepest condolences.
We wish that we could be here for you on Thursday, but please know that you and your mom are in our prayers. We will see you and reminisce about her when we return.
Much love to you, Viv and the Banducci family. May God bless.
What a lovely photo of your mother John. Even though we never met her, we know you, and know what kind of mother she must have been to raise someone as wonderful as you. We’re sure she will be sorely missed. Hopefully the pain you feel now will be replaced with many happy memories, ones that give you meaning and joy.
Sending love and waiting to give hugs in May.
Joan and Paul Martin💙
John & Viveca:
I am so saddened to hear this terrible news from you. Your Mom was an amazing lady. When we were in dental school, every time I was over at your place on Patrick Drive, she always treated me like family; whether for studying, or just relaxing, she would never let me come back home on anything less than a full stomach. I really liked her.
Thankfully, her passing was peaceful. She is now on her way to reunite with Edo. A terrible shame, but she certainly did experience a wonderful life.
My most sincere condolences for losing your Mom, and a wonderful very classy lady.
John & Viveca
I was sad to hear that Anna will be missed this Mother’s Day. I hope you are coping and remembering all the wonderful memories. I remember what a sweet, kind and lovely person Anna was indeed. Take care,
Love from Michael and Deanna and Tayla
