Dearest Michelle,
Thank you for bringing me and your mom together again after so many years. As you know we were best friends in Jr. High and will forever stay that way in my heart. We grew-up together,became young ladies together and eventually mom's together.You were the light of her life honey. We shared so much together for so long but our best and first and favorite topic was always our children.I feel so lucky and blessed that because of you we were reunited after almost 30 years in Florida. Our visit was magical,and my children got to meet your mom whom they had heard about their whole lives, my youngest had never met her till that day,but knew all about her,my oldest who had known her got to see baby pictures of herself that your mom had,that I have not even seen! Your mom, my dear friend is at peace now,and I am grateful for that,she and you will forever remain in my heart. I loved her as a sister and cherished her as my best friend. with loving thoughts and memories,Ruth Fontanella

To Cindy. I am glad a couple of years ago we got to see you again after so many years. It had been along time since we hung out in Plainfield. You living on the edge of those great potato fields where we had so much fun snowmobiling in the winter. Heading over and hanging out with the Duponts and Beckwiths and seeing how much mischief we could get in. You being a big sister to Rose and trying to look out for her. Rest in Piece and may you suffer no more. Your Friend Mike (Fuji) Fontanella
