To the Cipolla family,my condolences at the lose of Michael. He is my second cousin on the De Bonis side. His mother & my father Michael were first cousins. Philomena was the eldest of the De Bonis cousins.
I have been working on the family tree and have gone back to my great great grandparents in Potenza Italy. Please contact me so I can update the tree with your family information. Thanks, Alfredo de Bonis

Dear Terry, Mary and Michael,
May we send you our deepest sympathy at this time and say that our thoughts are with you all. We admired your father greatly. You must be even prouder of his devotion to you all. We know you will be brave in your sorrow as he have wanted you to be. Your father meant a great deal to me and I thank him for everything he did for me and we will miss his wonderful smile and his double talk he would give you. He now is at peace and with your mother.
Love to you all,
Aunt Janet and Uncle Mike
