    Dear Elisa, John, Camilia, Darian:
    Although no words can really help to ease the loss, just know that you are very close in every thought and prayer.
    Lean on your friends for strength, and always remember how much we care about you and your family.
    May the love of those around you help you. May the peace which comes from the memories of love shared, comfort you now and in the days ahead.
    “When we lose someone we love, it seems that time stands still. What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, we may not understand why he left before you were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, you will begin to remember not just that he died, but that he lived. And that his life gave you memories too beautiful to forget, and although it’s difficult today to see beyond the sorrow, may looking back in memory help comfort you tomorrow. May your memories give you strength.”
    You are in our prayers – Hugs and squeezes.
    The Thomas Family

    We have never met your father Elisa but became to know him quite well through CAMILLIA. You are all blessed to have a wonderful father & Nonno. NOW is when all the good times you have all had with him will stay with you forever. When the sun is shining he is smiling, when its raining he is overjoyed with happiness which bring happy tears for you all, & when its cloudy he is thinking do not be sad for me I’m in heaven and i have no more pain. Please be happy & always remember I’m a whisper away. Lots of love the Van Horns

    Dear Elisa, John, Camillia and Darian,
    Words seem inadequate to express the sadness that we feel about the loss of your father, grandfather {Nonno}
    May your hearts and souls find peace and comfort.

    You don’t get over it, you just get through it.
    You don’t get by it, because you can’t get around it.
    It doesn’t ‘get better’; it just gets different.
    Everyday………Grief puts on a new face. {Wendy Feireisen}

    With caring thoughts,
    Mubasher, Cindy, Braiden and Owen Faruki

    Elisa,John,Camilla and Darian,

    We are truly sorry to hear of the recent loss of your
    Father (Grandfather.)
    Those we love leave us with gifts in the form of memories that no one can take away. They gave us wisdom that we can still recall.
    Companionship when we needed it, and memories of their laughter and smile.These are gifts of love that are ours to keep.
    Emilio lived a long rewarding life and accomplished so much in
    his lifetime.He is leaving you another very special gift,a Legacy,
    and he is passing down the baton to his loved ones.
    May you find strength to move forward with confidence in knowing
    that his was a life well lived.

    I hope you will find strength in this bible verse.

    Bible 2 Timothy 4:6
    For I am already poured out like a drink offering,and the time has
    come for my departure.I have fought the good fight and finished
    the race,I have kept the faith.Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness,which the Lord, the righteous Judge,will reward to me on that day and not only to me,but also to all who
    have longed for his appearing.

    Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
    Ernie,Irene Ashley and Justin
