Angelina "Nonnie" Garioto 1913-2009

I am sad to post that Nonnie (my father's mother) passed away on Tuesday (6/16). We are heading to California with my brother and his family on Saturday to spend time with our family and celebrate her long life. Nonnie turned 96 in March.

You may recall Nonnie and her sister, Marge, cutting a rug at our wedding reception. :) Her last few weeks were more painful then we would have liked, but we now have a spunky, beautiful angel, or Angelina, watching over us.

Should you care to read it, click here for her obituary.

Vi amiamo, bella Nonnie
We love you, beautiful Nonnie
We took this photo with Nonnie about a month ago when we visited her after our Hawaii trip.

Taken at our wedding.

Hi Katie - Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that. I'm glad you're with family during this tough time. Your memories of your wonderful Nonnie will always be with you.
