Although I have not seen Carmela for many years, memories of her are such a part of my youth that I can remember her as clearly as if she were in the room with me now. For years, as a friend of Phil's, I was the recipient of her care and love -- every visit to the Torchia home meant plates and plates of wonderful food, prepared on the spot. "Mangia, Mac, mangia!" Like a second family, I often feel that I experienced the immigrant experience more through my time with the Torchia's than with my own family and the lessons learned through that have stayed with me for a lifetime. Love to the entire family as they celebrate Carmela's beautiful life and love.

My Condolences to you Aunty's Rosa's and the entire family. Heaven has added an Angel; Aunty's your Mom was such a kind person. God bless you, my uncle (Jonathan) and your family and watch over your during this most difficult time.🙏
