Good morning, friends.  This edition of Tea Time Talk is a very short one.  Although many things happened this past week, they seem pale compared to Wednesday evening. We lost a beautiful family member.

Ida, whom we called Nonnina (Little Grandma in Italian), was 95 years old. I have so many incredible memories from a woman who was not a blood relative, but who welcomed my entire family as her own.  (She was my Uncle Gino’s mom.  He passed away in 2006 at the age of 50.)

Today, we say our final goodbyes to Nonnina…

 

Be Blessed, my friends.  Hug your loved ones and always let them know you love them…
