We became family a very long time ago and I remember being with you all during my whole child and teen hood. You Bonzanos were my favorite craziest cousins and I loved seeing all of you every chance we got including when all our kids started being born and Barb would bring me to visit. I am sorry for all the memories we never made. I’m glad you picked a great woman to help keep your memory alive through your love and the faces of your beautiful children. RIH handsome
Love you always ❤️
