Butch, Janice,Penny,Keith. Tony & Family's can not tell you how sad I was when I heard of Rose's passing. I wasn't able to pay my respects due to work. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you it's never easy to lose someone you love. She was a great lady and I'm glad I was able to get to know her.

To my former babysitter Penny. I am the daughter of Dinese. She was co owner of Sturino's Shop and Go many years ago. I just wanted you to know who I am. (The youngest)I am very sorry to hear that you lost your Mom. I know that this will be a very trying time for you and your family. My prayers are with you! I think about you guys every time I drive down 47th avenue. Do not stand at my grave and weepI am not there; I do not sleep.I am a thousand winds that blow,I am the diamond glints on snow,I am the sun on ripened grain,I am the gentle autumn rain.When you awaken in the morning's hushI am the swift uplifting rushOf quiet birds in circling flight.I am the soft starlight at night.Do not stand at my grave and cry,I am not there; I did not die.
