My Grandma was the most correct and proper woman I’ve ever known!… The earth is a little worse off without my Grandma and Grandpa Mario!…

Dear Andrea, Mike and families: You all know what a wonderful couple your folks were. They were so lucky to enjoy such a long loving life with you all to enjoy sharing their love. We also feel like we were a part of your family and were always welcome in their home.
Heaven just got better as two wonderful people arrived to spend eternity together. We’ll be celebrating their life with you in June.
