Aunt Dottie, Kim and family,
I’m so sorry to hear about Vinnie. Although it’s been far too many years since I last saw him, his laugh can be recalled without effort. When we were kids he, along with Ricky, called me Gidget. I didn’t like that then but wouldn’t mind hearing him call me that now.
You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Hold tight to your memories and allow them to get you through the toughest days.
Love, Melissa (Ronnie’s daughter, Margaret’s granddaughter)
