I love you Gram. I miss you. You’re resting peacefully with Grandpa now. I know you were ready to see him again. Thank you for your love and your generosity and all the mac and cheese. We will spread your love and your light through us for all of our days. You are loved and remembered forever.

There could never be enough time with you Gram but I know in my heart that you are with Grandpa. You both waited long enough to be together again. Thank you for being our role model, confidant and fearless defender. A century of adding sass, laughter and spunk everywhere you went. You are one of a kind. There are endless memories of you attached to every moment of my life. I could tell you anything and plan to keep doing so. I know you will hear me and help me know what to do. So put on that snazzy bathing suit and hair wrap and hit the beach! Soak up the sun and all our love. Talk about everything and anything to Grandpa til the sun comes up and know we all carry you both with us wherever we go. Love, Liz

Mrs. Barbato…from the time I met you at 15 years of age until now…nearly 5 decades later…you always made it clear that your home was my home. I could arrive as a young teenager, I could arrive as a young mom toting my own son to swim in your pool, I could arrive as a grandma myself…your door and your heart were always open❤️ May I exhibit an ounce of the hospitality you shared with me to others and lives will be changed … as you did mine. Westbury Music Fair with the ladies will always hold a special place in my heart😉. Thanks for the love and memories. Till we meet again😘
