Diamond I am so sorry to hear about your mom. There are no words to express my sympathy for your loss. You guys have always been so supportive of me and I feel terrible that I didn't make it to the funeral home last night. I didn't find out til just now in an email from Vince. I would have been there had I known. Your mom was a great lady,always so good to me and I know she was very proud of you. The loss of a mother is like no other! She's in a better place now among some great company. I'm sure that Teri and my mom are at the gates waiting for her. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Diamond,
Just want you to know you and your family are in my prayers. I am honored to have worked with your Mom on several occasions with Italian Club Activities. She could make things happen! I also frequented the Fiesta for lunch as I worked @ SOCC. Many fond memories of your Mom. In my short time with her I knew she was special. You and your family were blessed. I think you are the BABY like me. Things will never be the same. Cling to the love! John Corvo
