Dear Mom,<br><br>We will honor you every day in how we live, who we are, and how we help and treat others. You have created and nurtured a legacy that you should be extremley proud of. You have taught us so many things such as love, courage, humility, and respect for one another and we were so blessed to have had you as our loving mother, nonnie, wife, and dearest friend to so many people.<br> <br>Anyone that was loved by you, knew that they were loved unconditionally. You constantly gave so much of yourself that being with you was truly an inspiration to behold. Remember that I used to say that you should be made a "Saint" because of your extraordinary giving nature, unselfishness, unique strength, and special gift of making everyone feel loved and welcome when they were with you.<br><br>I'd like to share with everyone our family creed:<br>"Our family is a circle of strength and love. With every birth and every union, the circle grows. Every joy shared adds more love. Every crisis faced together makes the circle stronger"!<br><br>Mom, may God Bless You and may he keep you close to his heart.<br>We miss you terribly and look forward to seeing you, Pa, and Brian when God calls on us. Until then, we will keep the candle lit and your spirit alive in our hearts, minds, and souls!<br><br>Love & Respect Always,<br>Your son Tony.
