    My dear friend…
    How is it possible. The world will be a much sadder place without your laughter. We met at such a young age and share so many memories. Even when I had to move so far away, you always let me know our friendship was forever. I’ll miss you my friend.
    Mrs. C, Joseph, Mike and the boys, your in my prayers and I’m so very sorry.
    All my love Rene

    To my dearest family, Angela, Mike, Mikey, Matthew & all the family.

    Mum & I (& the family in Italy) are so saddened to hear of the sudden loss of Maria.

    I will always treasure the time I was able to spend with Maria when I was in the States and more importantly will always have a spot in my heart.

    RIP Maria, you will be missed.

    I met Maria many years ago. Myself and my family even had the great fortune of meeting her father long before he passed away. He was a wonderful man and he & his wife raised great children. I’m still in shock that Maria is gone! I can still hear her laugh and will ALWAYS see her smile when I close my eyes!! She loved her boys more than anything in the world. She was a proud mother of her sons. She also was a wonderful friend. If she could help someone she would and not expect anything in return. I will miss her forever, until the day that I die. I guess that saying is true that the good die young! I will continue to pray for Michael & Mathew and her husband Mike. The world lost a terrific lady this week!!!
