Dear Rocco and Family. I am so very sorry to learn of Josephine's passing. Please accept my sympathy and prayers. I last saw Rocco and Josephine 2 years ago at Sacred Heart Church in Roslindale. Your wife and mom told me that they were both 90. I pray at this time that you will be supported by family and friends. I too will pray for your mom and family
