Dear Lori and family, So very sorry to hear about your Nonnas passing. She was a beautiful and kind spirit. Michael and I always enjoyed our little chit chats with her after Sunday mass. I still remember Lori coming to school one year (at Notre Dame du Lac) and sharing the flat Italian cookies (look like a snowflake) with icing sugar sprinkled on them. You had made them with your Nonna. They were delicious! Hopefully you will be able to smile soon when thinking of all the beautiful memories you have made with her. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. Hugs, Tracey
