Condolences

Please accept our deepest sympathy for your loss. Hope your memories comfort you, friends support you, and your faith eases your sadness,

I am Frank D'Alessandro's oldest daughter, Grace. As a child, me & my brother John and sister Hope used to spend time with Uncle Angelo & Aunt Nancy and their children. After our family broke up in mid 1967, we did not see the D'Alessandro family again. We only regained contact a few years ago.

Sincerely,

   Grace Madrak (D'Alessandro)

Please accept my family’s condolences at this difficult time. We are deeply saddened and hope that your faith gives you strength and comfort. 

I’m Frank D’Alessandro youngest Hope. We use to spend Christmas’s over Uncle Angelo and Aunt Nanny house in my younger years. When my family broke up we didn’t see relatives much . Once I made contact with Donna as an adult we were able to have a family get together. I will always hold that as a special time. 

Will keep your family in my prayers.
 

Sincerely,

Hope D’Alessandro Mannera

My deepest condolences. I didn't know Carol well but what I do know is she was a warm and loving human and the world will be missing a beautiful light.

We are sorry to hear of your loss, remembering that Carole is on her greatest journey to meet our Lord and Saviour above. What a loud roar of celebration there must be in Heaven. Another beautiful soul to abide there forever, until you meet again.

Charlie and family - I was Carole and Charlie's pastor at Pomeroy.  I have relocated to South Carolina, and am sorry that I will be unable to attend the services.  Carole had a bright light shining within her, and she was loved by many.  She had a servant's heart.  We saw this by her involvement at Pomeroy - choir, committee member and chair; weekly church program creator and editor (that was no small feat).  She was always willing to help.  Carole truly cared about people, and people truly cared about her.  Though we haven't seen one another since I moved, I will miss her greatly.  You and  yours will always be in my prayers.  May the Holy Spirit comfort  you during this dificult time.

God's peace to you,

Denise

We know that this leaves a hole in your heart and your lives and pray that your memories will bring you smiles thru your grief.  She was dedicated to her family, her church and her cats!  She will be greatly missed by many.

Wishing you the very best,         Linda  &  Mike
