There are so many great memories I have of your Mom it is hard to know where to begin. I was a kid when your Dad brought her to meet us. He was my Godfather and from the beginning everyone thought she was very neat. We spent time with them - one night she took us to visit your Dad down on Vine St. Back then, this was neat stuff! I wish all of you well. Marianne Gigliotti Taylor
