Mary Rose Nudo Costantino 1914-2008

My gram Costantino passed away peacefully on August 14, 2008 at 2:22 am. My mom/gram's daughter (Pasqualina), her son (Angelo Joseph) and daughter-in-law Joyce were there with her. Her breathing was labored, but she was peaceful. Mom and AJ, afraid that she was holding on for them, told gram they loved her and that it was okay to go. She took her last breath a minute later. :)

She passed away at Forbes Hospice, where she had been for two weeks. http://www.wpahs.org/hospice/index.html
What an amazing place.

Music by Al Caiola & His Orchestra, Italian Street Songs, 1993.

We love you Gram!!
