Mary, Lorena, Denis, Yvonne and Joe and family, it is with sadness that Bruno left us but I can only smile fondly and remember him always the humble man that I met many years ago and his smile. He touched many hearts and he will never be forgotten. Bruno, you were a rock then and we were blessed for having been part of our lives.
Love you for ever
Cris, Pierluca and Clelia
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and family during this difficult time. I would like to share with you this poem that helped me reflect when my father passed:
If I Should Go Tomorrow
If I should go tomorrow
It would never be goodbye,
For I have left my heart with you,
So don’t you ever cry.
The love that’s deep within me,
Shall reach you from the stars,
You’ll feel it from the heavens,
And it will heal the scars.
by Anon.
Lorena, Denis and extended family,
Our deepest condolences. May find memories give you solace during this time of loss and may your family love and unity be strengthened. Love never dies.
