My heart has sadness for you all, all of you children were so close to your mother, you were never far apart. When I would run into one of you Mom was not far behind. Your family has been blessed with a most wonderful bond created from your parents. I always admired this bond. This is also a legacy of being a family from the wonderful hilltop of Plesant Heights. Jesus have mercy and provide strength for you all: Terri, Jackie, Rich, Jeanne and Russell. Always Connie (Whitaker) Thomaselli
