Ann was a truly amazing woman who knew the meaning of family and instilled it all through the years to her children and grandchildren.  She will be sadly missed.  Patricia Knuckles

Mom,

Its been one day since we laid you to rest and I feel so lost already without you here. We all agreed that hugging you once more will never be enough because we loved you so much. You had such an impact on my life for so many years Mom, and what will get me through the day will be all of our memories together, and we had so many!! You brought me up to be the Woman, the Mother , the Nanna, and the Wife I am today. I feel your presence all around me and I promise I will continue to take care of Dad and our Family as you and I spoke of on so many occasions. I will never be able to fill your shoes Mom, but I will use all of what you taught me to get us all through as you have done for me. You are my best friend, my mother, my heart.

Love

Dear Uncle Ernie and Family,
I am so sorry for the loss of Auntie Ann.  She was an amazing and vibrant woman. I have fond memories of her from my childhood, laughing and joking with my grandmother.  I will always remember the day I ran into Uncle Ernie and Auntie Ann at the clam cake window at Galilee. Her loving smile and warm heart always shined, no matter how much time had passed between visits. She will be forever in my heart and missed dearly.  My prayers are with you and your family in this hard time.

God Bless,
Emily & Family
Granddaughter of Carmela

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief.  May your memories bring you comfort.

My most deepest heartfelt sympathy of your loss....
It is not very often you meet someone who touches your heart as Ann did mine. The kindness, compassion and love she showed me lives within me forever. Her smile radiated love and her spirit was fueled with passion. I always remember one of her favorite words "GUMPSION" as it represents strength and courage. Her spirit, love, inspiration & motivation will burn bright and live forever in every life she touched.

God Bless

Ernie and Family.

So sorry to hear of your loss. My prayers are with you and your family.

Words cannot express the emptiness we feel in our hearts now that you have passed.  I can probably speak for all of us when I say that you were our rock, our shoulder to cry on, our hero, and the glue that held us all together.  Your love and support throughout the years has gotten us through the worst of times, and helped create our best times.  You instilled in us the importance of family, and you taught us how to LOVE.  Your kind heart, and unconditional love brought warmth and a sense of security in knowing that you would always be there for us, and we could always count on you for anything.  God made you SPECIAL...and your impact on our lives will never be forgotten because we pass on your values and unconditional love to our own children.  You taught me how to be a good mother...a loving, caring, and patient mother, just as you were.  How I wish my two girls could have known you, because you would have brought joy to their lives, just as you did mine.  I show them your pictures, and tell them stories about you because I want them to know just how amazing you are!  You truly are the person I strive to be like, and I am sick just thinking I can't call you right now to tell you that.  I hope you know just how much I LOVE YOU and MISS YOU.

Love,
Your Granddaughter, Jamie
