"Junior Macaluso Relation to Deceased: Buddies since kindergarten at number 17 School One of the best school buddies I ever had. God BLESS YOU And Keep You Tony. Eternal rest grant unto Him O Lord, And may perpetual light shine upon Him, forever, Amen 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"
