Dear Mommom,
Where do we all go from here? What happens now? "Go on, live your life" is what I've been told so much, but I don't know life without you. There was never a time that you weren't there since the day I was born. Although gut wrenching as any other death, usually when one loses a grandmother it is expected to happen, and not to be considered one of the biggest detriments of one's life. You and I both know how much more you were to me, you were like another mother. I'm constantly struggling to leave this now seemingly eternal nightmare, it's as if in seconds I'll wake in a cold sweat and simply have my appreciation for you reaffirmed. But every minute of every day reminds me how less likely it is becoming to wake up. I had to see you before I fully even believed it. Never in my life will I forget the way you looked on Thursday; more peaceful than I have ever seen you and yet more far away than I'd ever care you to be. You're gone, but I still feel you. I constantly try to remind myself that you will never return. You'll never talk in Italian with me. You'll never be there to talk at all; to tell me how proud you are when I accomplish something new, or even when I fight with my parents, or when I just want to say hello. I'll never touch your warm body again; a hug, a kiss, an exchange of "I love you so much" never again can be reciprocated. When in the house I keep hearing your voice or seeing you at first glance only to discover it's your sister...or your daughter. It's always said that after someone dies, the house changes...gets bigger? It feels so small to me now, but different in other ways. I sat in your bedroom for 15 minutes or more yesterday because it's the only room in the house that still smells like you. I went to the amusement park today, I'm sure I told you why. I almost forgot this mess for a few moments, but nearly every time I smile I feel guilty. I don't know. Not because of anything that happened during your life; we had our arguments but that was part of who we were to each other (although no justification for any disrespect I've ever given you). I realized last night that I haven't prayed once...I'm sure I will at some point but it's as if every bit of faith in me has been drained. Ordinarily when feeling remotely like this I would turn to you, and now I don't know where to go. Mom I'm so lost. My dad has been so strong, so I don't know how to help him. My uncle is so emptied. My cousin is on the same page I am from what we've talked about. And my mom is so burnt out. I'm finding it nearly instinctive to want to turn to you. You were the shine in my sun and I don't even know if I knew it. You would stand outside every single time I'd leave your house, and wave and smile until I was out of sight. You always made sure I was full at dinner, and never sat down before everyone else was eating, and never gave me a second to doubt whether or not you were proud. The teachers you met last Friday, (one of which you danced with) were so shocked to hear. You were crying for me while I was singing, and cutting in line to get me and Joey food (which there is a picture of in the Hammonton Gazette) and dancing and smiling and laughing a week ago. Where are you now? You know who I am, you know how I like to "know it all." The only things I know anymore is how much I love you, and that my last few memories of you are some of the best. Rest Peacefully.
God Bless you, I will love you until the day I die, and then I hope we can be together again.

Dear Aunt Dot,
I sat by your bed the day the Lord took you home. I was utterly shocked to see you at such peace. I thought of you as the Rock of Gibralter. I never thought you would fall so suddenly. I will always cherish our conversations we would have when you came to my home. The one thing that i will miss about you greatly is your strong will. That is what i loved most about you.
Psalms 23: 1-6
Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; he leadth me beside still waters. He restoreth my soul; He leadeth me the paths of righousness for his name sake.
Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil; for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies; Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
Amen.
I will always keep you in my heart, because not only are you my beloved aunt, but God says to keep all of His people in our hearts.
Your dearest Niece,

I knew Mrs. Ricco when she worked at Edgewood where I went to school. She was a very nice lady.I went to Edgewood and was in class of 1984. Mrs.R was quite a character. She never let us kids get away with much.Looking at her picture takes me back over 20 years to school. When ever I saw Mrs. R I felt safe. Rest in Peace to a very sweet woman.....</b></font><br><br>
