    Dear Pat and Families,
    We are so saddened to hear of Emira’s passing. She will be dearly missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with you, your children and families. The memories as children playing, to teenagers, then grown ups, to marriage and having children and the journey’s go on, have enlightened our souls to know beautiful friends.
    Cherished memories never fade, because one loved is gone. Those we love can never be, more than a thought apart, for as long as there’s a memory, they live on in our heart.
    Your Friends,
    Eric, Mary & Carlo D’Onofrio

    We are saddened at the news of Emira’s passing. She was a great lady, with a wonderful sense of humor. We are very thankful for all the kindness both Emira and Pat extended to our daughter Lynn – and us. We will remember her laughter and jabbing, and Jones still want real whipping cream in his coffee.
    With a heavy heart we offer our sincerest sympathy to Pat and Family.

    Best Regards,
