  • Maria's kindness and generosity will be remembered. Dining at Maria's was truly a culinary delight. She had the shrewd ability to assess people and situations, then drill down to the facts in order to arrive at her conclusions. Our last few encounters were especially memorable as we updated each other on family matters. Our world has one less angel among us. Heartfelt sympathy to Maria's sons and their families. - Posted by: James & Pat Penner (Friends) on: Jul 16, 2012

  • I have great memories of Maria but I always called her Mrs. Cenedese. She had a great sense of humor and always spoke her mind which on occasion made the comment even funnier! My sincerest condolences Ger - Posted by: Geraldine field (Family friend) on: Jul 15, 2012
