Grace was a long time family friend. I remember, when I was a young child, she and her husband would come to visit and always bring my brother George and I candy. She had a lovely smile and was so warm and friendly. On behalf of my dad, Andrea Arcioni and my brother and his family, we send our deepest condolences to Linda, Dino and their respective families on the loss of their mom and nonna. - Posted by: Frances McQuiggin (family friend) on: Nov 06, 2012
