Una persona umile, intelligente, laboriosa, efficace, e saggia; la nostra forza sempre. Piena di valori di fede vera, amore e speranza, i doni che essa ha dato a noi. Siamo ricchi perche noi l’abbiamo avuta come madre, nonna, bisnonna; nostro tesoro, molto preziosa, il nostro amore, il centro della nostra famiglia. Ci manca moltissimo; e amata forte dalla sua famiglia. La sua Famiglia
