To the Pagnotta Family,
Sending you my heartfelt condolences for zia Teresa. When I think of her, I think of stopping by once in a while during the summer when we were kids to visit her, zio Emilio and Skip the dog, and she always had a smile and kind words for us.
Certainly her love for her family is her legacy that will continue for many generations to come.
