Dearest Zia Edvige, Annie, Mike, Zia Connie, and Uncle John, and extended family
We are thinking of you in your time of mourning, and hope you find comfort knowing he is in good company. I am not sure if they are eating figs, castagna or salami, but I am sure they are onto a good scopa game by now.
Many hours we spent together eating fabulous meals and laughing with each other. Zio always loved to talk, and it was the best when he emphasized his point with “this is what I think,…or no?”, and we knew he wasn’t impressed with someone when he finished a story with”Goodbye Charlie”.
Thank you Zio Lui for the memories we made in all the dances, all the jokes, all the food and all the trips to Seattle! We will laugh and dance together again one day.
Much love to you all from Linda, Giuseppe and Natasha
