Great job steph, love you…..Mark
Nan,Thank You for being such an important part of our lives. We always new that a visit to your house meant so much more than simply a "visit". Some of the things we found were:Great smells of italian foods being simmered on the stoveItalian wedding soup loaded with meatballs on holidaysPerhaps the winnings of a "lucky" lottery ticket on the counter, given out to family freelyA loaf of italian bread always on handA cold beverage on hot, humid Jersey summer daysA clean, comfortable home where you felt as if it were your "own" homeCandid conversations about things you felt were important, and meaningful to you and the ones you lovedAdvice or the occassinal "stern" talking to Tales of days gone bye, and relatives from afarTo find you talking in italian via telephone to Italy once in a while upon our arrivalBut most of all, we found unconditional love and acceptance. The feeling that family meant something and that we always had each others back. In good times, as well as challenging times. I appreciate the love and care you gave me throughout my life. From a little boy to a grown man. We will miss you of course, but think fondly of the memories above as we know you're in God's hands.And….That's a good place to beLoveMark
Sleep Now Nanny DoraAlthough I cannot see you,I can feel your presence near.I will hold you close in memory,Till I drop my very last tear.So sleep now with the angels,And your golden heart let rest.Although our hearts are broken,We know that GOD took the best.So dance beyond those golden gates,And join your loving husband Memories held tight of how you were perfect matesFor today I'll close my eyes,and see your smiling face.I'll lock you up inside me heart,Until we again embrace.So rest now my beautiful nannyI'll never forget how much you have done.So until my hand meets yours again,Sleep now in the sun.Love Stephanie
