Dear Mom,
I am feeling so lonely, and I still cannot believe that you are gone. In many ways, I have been grieving your loss for the past three years as dementia slowly took you away from us. I missed you then, and now I will miss seeing your beautiful smile, hearing your voice, and feeling your love.
You were not only my mother—you were my best friend. Even though we lived far apart, I loved talking to you about my family, my joys, my worries, and all the little things happening in my life. Whenever something happened, whether good or bad, you were always the first person I wanted to call. Knowing that I can no longer pick up the phone and hear your voice leaves an emptiness in my heart that words cannot describe.
I am grateful that you passed peacefully in your sleep, and I find comfort in knowing that you are finally reunited with Dad, whom you missed so much since he passed away in 2001. I can only imagine the joy of your reunion after so many years apart.
Mom, please watch over our family, especially Bianca. She is doing well, but I know she can use the love and protection of her grandmother and all the angels in Heaven. Your guidance and your constant rosary prayers for us, meant so much to me.
I will never forget the day you met Renato. You smiled and said, “He’s the one you are going to marry.” As always, you were right. You taught me what it means to be a loving wife and mother, not through words alone, but through the example you lived every day. The love, sacrifice, devotion, and strength you showed our family shaped the person I am today.
Thank you, Mom, for every sacrifice you made, every lesson you taught, every prayer you said for me, and every ounce of love you gave so freely. I will carry you in my heart for the rest of my life.
I love you, and I know that one day you will be waiting for me with open arms. Until then, rest in eternal peace with Dad. You have earned your heavenly reward.
Forever your Daughter,
Pina
Carlo, I’m so sorry for your loss. Sending you and your family all my love.
Be brave, be strong and carry on.
Wendy
Dear Pina, Carlo, Bruno and families,
Our deepest condolences on the loss of your beautiful mother. A few weeks ago, Fel, Nicole and myself were reminiscing about all the wonderful veggies my parents used to get from your parents’ farm. How delicious and tender were those rapini. We were so sad to hear of her passing. She is reunited with your dad, my dad and all the others who have passed. We are so sorry that we will not be able to attend her viewing as we are all leaving for a vacation on Thursday. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Love Doris and Felice D’Avella and family
