we are so sorry to hear about the loss of Mary, We always enjoyed our conversations with her. We just lost our Mother Catherine on August 11th so we understand the hurt your heart is feeling now. I'm hoping that good memories help heal our hearts soon. It has been a pleasure knowing Mary over the years and we our honored that she enjoyed our homemade pasta on many occasions, because I know she knew how too cook well herself! God Bless, The Family at Ruffolo's International Foods
