Your sorrow can only be helped by the happy memories and good times, trips and etc. tthat you shared these past years. I will do the same and think of all the fun times, dinners, cook outs, boat ride, watching the kids play ball, Mary and Charlie and laughing so much together.

All of us kids learned a lot about loving each other and loving life from Mr. Mangini and for that I will be forever grateful. My one regret is that as we grew up, we grew apart... but I still have my memories! Rest In Peace and God bless Mrs. Mangini and the extended Mangini clan. It was my privilege to have known your husband, father, grandfather, uncle and friend. I know that he will be dearly missed. I'm sure that he and my dad, Bob Miller, are looking proudly down from heaven at their work here on earth and sharing a smile and a handshake for the legacy's and memories they left behind.
God Bless,
Scott Miller
