A rare family photo of all of us ❤️
Mom and I ❤️❤️
Love you Mom
I don’t know where to begin. You have given me so much strength over the years and especially now. You were such a fighter and a extremely strong woman. I hope you are dancing, singing, drinking some wine, enjoying some linguine, and maybe a cannoli too with the rest of the family in heaven. I miss you so much but will cherish all the good memories forever. Love you always and forever! ❤️❤️
