With deep condolences to the family. Filomena was a wonderful lady; always with kindness in her eyes, warmth in her conversation and a friendly interest in others. My memories of poppy seed cake, tea in glass cups and good 'talks' will stay for many years. Vibrant right to the end, she was an great model for her daughters and grandchildren. May she now rest in peace.

Dear Anne, Ed and family,

Anne,
My most sincere condolences to you and your family for the passing of you mom. I trust that she has left you and the rest of her loved ones many beautiful memories to relive - the joy, the laughter, the smiles...perhaps even a few arguments!
God gives us memories that we might have roses in December; time for the roses to bloom.

Pietro
