Our deepest sympathies to the family.  We are proud to have been called on during this difficult time and hope that our services were a comfort to you.  Joe Craciun and Funeral Home Staff.

What a beautiful tribute in pictures to your mother.  God bless you all, Mary Becka

To the family of Josephine Colella, on behalf of the Matteo Mandica family in adelaide australia, we express our sincerest condolences and wish we could have had the opportunity to have met you.

My little Josie, I will miss you. We had a beautiful yet sad day for you. My mother was extremly sad to see you go.  She took such good care of you over the last few months but you also took care of her by bringing alot of Joy to her heart. My children will really miss you. God Bless you Grandma.  Watch over your Rita Mae!!!   Love you always.

Grandma,
I don't think that there are any words that could even begin to describe how much I love you.  You were my best friend. Whenever I was sad or lonely you were the only person in the whole world that could make things better. Losing you will hurt forever but I will keep our special memories close to my heart. Grandma please keep an eye on me from up there in heaven and give me the strength to get through each day without you. I love you always.  
"Roses are red my love, violets are blue. Sugar is sweet my love but not as sweet as you."

           Love your little Megan

I am sorry for your loss. Please take comfort in knowing that God is near to those that are broken at heart. He will comfort and strengthen you at this most difficult time.--Psalm 46:1

Near or far, we all love, we all grieve. I will miss my mother as, I too loved her dearly. I am not there, however, I will make peace with her and myself. Thank you Rita and Jim for taking care of her and making her comfortable and arranging her service. I know it was difficult the last several months and I am sorry that I was not there to help you.  Please kiss her for me. God Bless. Love Frances.

Gram,
I don't know what I'm going to do with out you.  You have been more than a grandmother you were my mother and best friend, thank you for raising me.  You will be truly missed but will stay forever in my heart.  I love you very, very much.  Your Baby Cindy!

Rita,
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Your mother was a joy to be around even when things were rough and money was tight.  She made your house a warm welcoming home to which she always made me welcomed.  I hope your happy memories of her will help to get you through the days and years ahead.  
Love,
Kathy(PArente)Carmon
