Dear Dianna and Family:
My prayers are with you. I have so many fond memories of Mr. Ciancone as a child. He was a wonderful man and will be dearly missed.
Dear Dianna-
So sorry for your loss. I have many fun memories of your father over the years. I’m glad I had the chance to talk with him in December. May your memories comfort you.
Dear Family,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. As long as I can remember, there was always quiet, sweet “Uncle Johnny”. I will never forget as a kid that I rode to the Pittsburg Airport with Uncle Tullio to take John to catch a plane to go back and visit Fontecchio. He was the most excited and talkative I can remember him being except many years later when Dianna was born. He must have been all of 24 years old then!! Know that he left fond memories in the hearts of many people. Love to all. Chere
Dianna,
I am so sorry for your loss. You are in my thoughts and prayers, dear friend.
