Carissimi Renato, Sylvana e famiglia
Le mie piu sentite condoglianze per la scomparsa della tua cara mamma Rafaella. Ho molti bei ricordi nel corso degli anni, poiche lei, e il tuo caro padre hanno viaggiato con noi ad Acapulco in diverse occasioni.
E sempre stato un piacere passare del tempo insieme; questi ricordi sono davvero speciali.
I miei pensieri e pregheire sono con tutti voi.
Amore,
Maria Formusa
