Nonna Angelina Jan. 1, 1930 - July 5, 2009

Cristiano with his nonna in Greece

We will miss you, nonna. How fitting that you went on a Sunday, the most important day of the week for you (you'd plan for days and days and stress all of us out asking "What should I make on Sunday? I have to know so I can buy the ingredients at the market on Thursday..." as if it were the most important question to be resolved during the week) and the day we have always gathered together as a family. You could whip up a meal just as you could whip us all into shape. You were truly a strong woman and a model to follow. Rest in peace now that you are with your husband Francesco, son Giorgio, granddaughter Luna, son-in-law Loris and all of the others who went before you in such an untimely manner. We are so happy that we were with you to the end and so happy that Dylan got to know his nonnina if only for a little while...
