Grandma:
My life will always be better because I had the pleasure of meeting you. I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to enjoy your stories, experiences, your great sense of humor, and how to bake the perfect angel food cake… I know that you are in Heaven because you definitely earned. I wish we would have more of your kind in today’s world.
You were loved, respected, and treasured. You were one of a kind. My life will be better because I had the privilege of knowing you. You made me feel special and loved. Thank you very much for that…

I want to tell the whole Marciano Family and your Friends I am so sorry for your loss, she was a special woman to anyone whom ever met her, and she is in Heaven waiting for all of us, this is one of the hardest things a human must experience, again, I am so sorry, your all in my thoughts and my Prayers. Peace……
It has been a privilege and honor to have been a part of your family. I will miss your honesty and wit, but most of all your love that you gave to all of us without reservation. You will be missed by everyone who knows and loves you.
Me & Tony are sorry for your great loss, Mrs. Marciano was a lovely and gracious lady and I amsure will be missed a great deal by her family. Our sympathy goes out to all of you and we will keep you in our prayers. Love, Aunt Jackie & Uncle Tony.
My Dear Cousin Theresa,
I will miss you like crazy, but only half as much as Mom will. I will miss your phone calls wondering where Mom is and why she didn’t call you first. You completed her life in a way only a sister could do. You were and always will be her Best friend. The 3 Roses!!!!
Praise God you are not suffering anymore. I know you are in heaven dancing on the streets of gold.
‘Save a Place for me’.
Precious Family,
My heart is heavy for all of you. I pray and know that our Faithful Lord will comfort you as you reach for Him. So much love to all of you.
Cousins Sonny and Susan
My heart and prayers go out to the Marciano Family during this difficult time. Grandma Theresa was truly an amazing woman. I have many great memories of her that I will always remember!
Oh Teresa! I will miss your honesty and words of wisdom you’ve given me through the years. You always made me laugh, always. My mom will miss you more, though. You were like sisters and were very close. I wish I was there with the family for the celebration of your life. Between the tears and laughter, the floor will be wet. Love to all of your family. I will be with you all in spirit across the miles. God Bless!
