I remember when we first moved here ,in Gormley,we were welcomed in our new neighborhood by your parents. Your mother was such a special person. She would come ,over and visit my mother-in-law and have coffee with her in the afternoon. Talking Italian with your mom, Carmina felt, she finally made an Italian speaking friend close by. When my husband got sick ,she called once a week to find out how he was doing. Those precious phone calls were greatly appreciated. Even with COVID-19 ,we kept in touch.She will be sadly missed! sincere condolences to you Danny and the whole family. May God give you all the courage and strength at this difficult time. Take care ,Ubi & Mary Crescenzi and family
