Pupa,
Words can't express the amount of love you shared. From summers I spent under your care, to the stories you told us grandchildren of the beauty of Italy. The seriousness of Italian soccer, cleveland Indians, Perry Mason, and John Wayne movies; to the laughter we shared with rubber bands at the expense of the cats. The toot-toots, "horse meat"(mortadella), and garlic olive oil noodles will forever remind me of you. You made little bets with me and lose on purpose just to give me a buck for the corner store. 
When Tony, Brandon, and I weren't allowed outside, you would let us go as long as we didn't slam the door. The way your smile always made me smile and how "too pooped to pop" was your signal for bed.
These are just a few of the things I will never forget.
I love you Pupa

Although I did not know you personally, I can tell that you are very loved by your family and friends.  You are very special to them and are missed greatly!  We all need an angel in our corner!

For My Dad....      God saw you getting tired, When a cure was not to be.
So He closed His arms around you and whispered, " Come to Me". You didn't deserve what you went through and so He gave you.... rest.  God's garden must be beautiful, He only takes the best. When I saw you sleeping so peaceful...free from pain, I could not wish you back to suffer that again.

Pupa, I miss you a lot! Sometimes I feel that the boys and I did not visit you as often as we would have liked. But I know that we will see you again and that you are always in my heart! I love you, Pupa!

Just a little something to think about....

Though we say goodbye for now, it is only until we meet again someday-when our emptiness will turn to fulfillment, our despair to joy, and we will love again for eternity in that place where no one grows old.         
                                 We Love and Miss u <3<3

                                   To Papa Bowl
A poem read by Brittany and Samantha DiSiena

Saying goodbye to a loved one is surely one of life's most difficult tasks. There are no words powerful enough, no music soothing enough, to ease your pain at a time like this. But I know you will find consolation in knowing how much you loved and cared for each other.
You gave so much of yourself, and the precious memories of times you spent together will heal you and make you whole again. And you will understand what a blessing it was to have shared in the life of someone you loved so much.      We Love you and miss you!!  <3

    We little knew that morning That God would call your name,       
    In life we loved you dearly, In death we do the same,
    It broke our hearts to lose you, You did not go alone.
    Part of us went with you, The day God called you home.
    You left us with peaceful memories, Your love is still our guide,
    Though we cannot see you, You are always at our side.
    Our family chain is broken, Nothing will be the same.
    But as God calls us one by one, The chain will link again.
    

                                    Sadly missed and loved by
                                      (Son) Joseph and Anna
