"Sam and Sharon and Sammy Campione Relation to Deceased: Uncle Uncle Joe you will be dearly missed! We still think of all those hours we spent play cards till the wee hours in the moring. My Father, your brother, always worried about his little brother! Sammy always talks and asks about you!. The celebration of life, shared in the beginning, and again, in the end. Yet we forget to celebrate it, in every moment we live. Time, days, years, go on, but are we alive? Alive and do not know it, sleeping in the world and dead to the life we are to live. To celebrate all life, the sparrow who sang in the morning, and died in the night, why do we not celebrate its life? To know thyself is to know you are alive - to give, to love, to seek truth, beauty, and suffer pain. In life as it is meant to be, pain is forgotten, and strength is all that's left to be gained in the moment by moment celebration of life. By Deborah Peabody"
"Anne V. Mannella Relation to Deceased: daughter Dad, because you listened to me, I knew I had something to say. Because you believed in me, I believed in myself. Dad, so much of the good things in my life, started with you... THANK YOU. Missing you, your stories, and your laugh.XOXO The butterfly emerges from its silken shell- Reborn, it arises, no longer bound to earth. Free at last, the butterfly glides to heights unknown before. So do our loved ones find a beautiful release as, earthbound no more, they leave our sight and joyfully rise to a garden of matchless beauty, a place of light and peace. -Evelyn Phillips"

Fran Panella The butterfly emerges from its silken shell- Reborn, it arises, no longer bound to earth. Free at last, the butterfly glides to heights unknown before.

"Laura Tartaglia Relation to Deceased: Daughter Dad a part of my heart was ripped from me when you passed. Together you and mom started an amazing legacy. I am so blessed to have nothing but happy memories from childhood to present. Over 700 friends and family came to pay their respects to you. You touched so many hearts with your kindness. You will forever be in my heart. I love you Daddy. Those we love remain with us for love itself lives on, and cherished memories never fade because a loved one's gone. Those we love can never be more than a thought apart, far as long as there is memory, they'll live on in the heart."
"Anne V. Mannella Relation to Deceased: Daughter Dad, Fall is upon us and so is hunting season. What I would give to hunt one last time with my daddy. As we look back over time We find ourselves wondering ..... Did we remember to thank you enough For all you have done for us? For all the times you were by our sides To help and support us ..... To celebrate our successes To understand our problems And accept our defeats? Or for teaching us by your example, The value of hard work, good judgement, Courage and integrity? We wonder if we ever thanked you For the sacrifices you made. To let us have the very best? And for the simple things Like laughter, smiles and times we shared? If we have forgotten to show our Gratitude enough for all the things you did, We're thanking you now. And we are hoping you knew all along, How much you meant to us."
