Carmela would've been happy to know her sister took care of me since she wasn't here for me. I always talked so fondly about my Aunt Jo and Uncle Fred. I was lucky to have both around for so long. I will miss them so much <3 My family is donating Chrysanthemum, Guess How Much I Love You, The Rainbow Fish, and The Girl Who Drank The Moon in her memory.

I can hear Grammy Jo echoing the words my three year old son said to her, as he was leaving her house after a week long visit. " You're gonna miss me!" You're right! We will miss you! Say hello to Grampa Fred from all of us, and give him big hug! With love, Tricia

The moment I met Jo she welcomed me wholeheartedly into her family. She said, " Since you and my daughter are such good friends, you are now part of our family, you're my new daughter. " She not only adopted me, she adopted my children too. Thank you for loving us all! We love you! Tricia
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.
