Zia Pina as I’ve always called her was such a wise, beautiful soul and I always felt loved by her throughout those wonderful family gatherings. I was always treated my like family and will miss her smiling eyes and warm smile. Riposa in Pace Zia Pina, you were loved by so many.
To Pasquale, Mae, Relatives & Friends:
We were very sadden to hear of the passing of Commare Pina (who was more like a Mother). She was a loving & caring soul and will remain in our hearts & prayers always.
Thank you for all the gnocchi you gave us & all your love.
May you rest in peace with Compare Domenico and all your loved ones.
Our deepest & sincerest condolences to all of you.

Condoglianze to the families,
I keep trying to find words for what Pina meant to me, and nothing feels enough. Because how do you explain losing someone who felt like a mother to your soul. Even in this grief, I know how deeply fortunate I was to be loved by her. That love will stay with me always, and I will forever hold close the time we shared. 💜
My heart is with you, I am grieving this loss deeply, alongside you. My condolences to Pasquale, and all who had the pleasure of knowing her.
Rest easy, dear Pina, until we meet again.🙏
Holding you close in our thoughts.
Pina’s kindness was a gift to everyone who knew her.
May her legacy of love and kindness continue to live on in her son Pasquale. 🙏
Rest in eternal peace Pina. 💕
