There are so many memories of our families spending time together when we were young. 
Even though miles separated us for many years Aunt Fondi never forgot a birthday call.  
I'm grateful that I got to see her one last time. She will be missed. 
So sorry for your loss. 
Love,
Rita


We will miss her,especially her phone calls on Birthdays.
We loved her,she was one special lady.
So sorry for your loss.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Love 
Elaine and Nicky

As most know, my grandmother lived in New York. She loved the city! It allowed her to be independent and kept her mind active especially as she aged. When I was a young girl, I would visit her during summer break. I remember following at toe as she took me around the city to run errands, like grocery shopping, going to the beauty parlor, visiting friends and doing whatever crazy errands she wanted done. Its funny because what I remember most about our rendezvous through the city, was her holding my hand so tight that it hurt. I would get so mad because, she would squeeze my small fragile hand with such a tight grip, that I swore she would take my hand off one day. What I realized later in life, is that the reason she held my hand so tight was to protect me.  As I grew up, became a teenager, then a young woman, though she no longer needed to physically hold my hand anymore, she remained steadfast in her love and devotion to myself and our family. She continued to protect us the best she could. Fonda Renna was the kindest, most giving woman I have ever known. She always presented herself as a true lady, she loved children, loved to dance... she truly loved life! Moreover, she loved her children and grandchildren.  During her final days, really hours... my mother, sister and I, held her hand in an effort to protect her, and make her feel safe and loved; just like she always did for us. We held her fragile, aged hands until she no longer needed us to protect her anymore. God stepped in, took her hand, easing her pain and suffering - something we were not capable of providing for her... and on December 9th, 2018, Heaven gained an angel! I love you with all my heart and my soul. Please know that you will never be forgotten! Though my heart bleeds right now and my sadness is great; I have comfort in knowing you are in a better place, free from your suffering. 
Grandma this is not goodbye! … Let's say, “I will see you later”!

Thank you Mom for your love and support in my life🌹

Aunt Fondi,
That’s what I’ve called you ever since I was a baby. 
We called you “The Fonz” when I worked with you at the World Trade Center. 
It was the late 70’s right after I got out high school you got me the job. 
I’ll never forget the fun we used to have. 
You were my boss but you didn’t give me any special treatment (Other than bringing me in food) 
You were always fair to everyone. 
But I now realize that your main job was chasing all of the girls away from me.  
You were very protective of me. 
You were proud to say I was your nephew.  
And I was certainly proud to say that you were my aunt. 
The happiest times were when I used to pick you up to bring you to the house for our family parties. You and my father. 
My kids Vincent and Gina always got a kick out of you as did the rest of the family and my friends. You were always the first one to get up and dance at the parties. 
You always had a smile on your face and your laughter was always contagious. 
You always dressed beautifully and your red hair always well kept. 
You never had a negative thing to say about anyone. 
You were truly a good human being. 
I won’t ever forget you Aunt Fondi and I’m sure no one else will either. 
Say hi to my Mom, Dad, my Brother, Grandma and Grandpa and The rest of our family and close friends. 
I’m sure there’s quite a party going on up there like the good old days. 
I Love You Aunt Fondi. 
Until we meet again 😘

I have held many labels in my lifetime- daughter, sister, friend, aunt, mom, grandmother, boss, neighbor, honey, love, old lady, young lady, gorgeous and so many more. I felt almost all emotions on the emotional scale from fear to joy. 

I have lived 33,488 days which is about 2.8 billion seconds or in layman terms 91 years 8 months 6 days and 19hours. That is well over 2.8 billion opportunities in this lifetime alone to be present within the moment. 2.8 billion opportunities to be love and experience love. 2.8 billion moments on Earth to recognize that I am a Beloved Child of God and to be here on Earth must mean I have been worthly.

For some souls, this many opportunities will never take place in a lifetime(for this I have been more than blessed). With many moments in my lifetime to recall God within thy self- it took me towards the end of life to feel worthly of the love that was always there. If I leave one thing upon this earth for my loved ones and those who are reading this... Do not let it take you 2.8 million opportunities to feel and be present... Love TONS

I have known Fonda for almost 45 yrs, she is the mother of my best friend Louisa and grandmother to all my godchildren Stacey, Erica and Peter....She was a crazy funny woman and I loved her as if she was my mom!! She will always be in my family’s hearts😘😘😘

My Dearest Grandma,

I feel blessed to have had you in my life for as long as I did; for I know many were not as lucky as I. Regardless, I do not think I would ever be ready to say goodbye to you. The ache I feel and the endless tears seem to have no end, I miss you so much already.  

Thank you for everything you have done for me, and for being an amazing grandmother and mother.  I will never forget you or how you have inspired me throughout my lifetime. 

I trust that you will be watching over us, as Heaven received an angel!... Until we meet again!

With Love,
Stacey Miller-Carey

My heart aches for your family. It's always so hard and sad to lose a loved one. We know she's an Angel in heaven and has no pain. But we are left here on earth to morn the loss.   I always enjoyed playing bingo with Fonda she was a character. She will be missed. My love to all the family and you will be in my prayers...God Bless!

I had an angel here beside me,
Sent to Earth to help and guide me,
An angel always there for me
Sent to love and care for me.
She did the things that angels should:
She taught me what was bad and good,
She gave me hope when no one cared,
She held my hand when I was scared,
She cheered me up when I was down
(She could make a smile from a frown),
She doctored me when I was sick,
It was many of her angel tricks.
Today my angel earned her wings
Her harp, halo and other things.


Remembering you is easy 
I do it everyday but there's an ache within my heart that will never go away
Thank you mom for your dear love
      💗 Louisa 💗
