Dearest Zia,
Of all my extended family, you have always had a special place in my heart. And I'm grateful and thankful to have had you in my life since I could remember. I can't think of a gathering at our house when I was little that didn't have you and your family in it. I wish you could have enjoyed more time with us, especially now that you finally settled close to Cinzia in Burlington ... but that was not to be. I hated seeing you suffering these past few days and wish for you a blessed place in heaven, peacefully, with your family. I will miss you Zia Antonietta!

Zia Antonietta was one of the most independent ladies I knew. She took transit everywhere even to Wasags Beach and was a real role model to all Italian immigrant ladies. She was a wonderful cook not only for herself and for her family but also to hundreds of people at a time in a banquet hall setting. She was always kind to our family and was very close to her brother Orlando- my dad. She will now be reunited with her beloved son Bruno and knowing that makes us all very happy! God bless you Zia- we love you and will miss you!
