Patrick, Dennis and Jeanne,
There are no words to describe the emptiness we feel. She was my Godmother and for the last 25 years since my Mom passed away, she was also one of my best friends. I will miss all of the long telephone conversations, the visits, the crazy shopping sprees both in Miami and Pittsburgh, the wonderful trips/vacations we took and especially the great cruises we went on together. In fact, she and your Dad got me to start collecting Lladro on our first cruise together in 1977! Those memories will be carried in my heart forever.
Jim will never forget how she made him feel welcome and comfortable from the first moment they met 19 years ago when the three of us all went to Vegas together. He called her "Mama" from then on. He had the ability to make her laugh till she cried from then until our last telephone conversation together just a little over a week ago.
She was the most wonderful, caring person and the most beautiful woman both inside and out. We will cherish our memories and miss her always.
Kathie Rosella and Jim Morris
Patrick, Dennis and Jeanne,
I am so sorry for your loss. Beverly and I have known each other a long, long time. We stood for each other in our weddings 66 and 68 years ago. She will remain in my thoughts for the rest of my life. I'm sorry I cannot attend the service or funeral. At 93, I'm just not up for that and Helen has been in and out of the hospital the last couple of months as well. Please accept my deepest sympathy as well as Helen's.
Mike Rosella and Helen Petrancosta
