    Cousin Mickey, With all my heart I want to extend our Family's deepest sympathy during this difficult time for you. It's hard to think about Cha Cha without thinking of Uncle Tommy, they were inseperable and I don't think I ever saw one without the other. There's nothing like Family, and they were the perfect example of what "Family" means. Now, once again, their together again. Their example will be remembered forever, Cousin Skipper & Family.

    Dear Micky & Family: I am so saddened to hear of the loss of your mom. I worked with mom years ago at the June Rose Salon in Warren. She and I always found time to have a laugh or take a quick break. Be blessed that you had to opportunity to have mom with you all these years. Keep her memories close to your heart and know that she has completed her journey here on earth to that better place of peace and rest they all talk about. One day you will be re-united as a family with dad, your brother and mom where you can all pick up your lives again where you left off on the day she passed. God Bless you. Linda Pinheiro Sylvia
