My sincere condolences to all of the Pepoli and Tambasco families on the departure of this beautiful woman from this life who was my aunt Rose. Her memory will endure for all of us. May she have everlasting peace in OUR LORD.
Keeping Ciro and Rose’s family in my prayers. She and Ciro were so welcoming when we visited them in Shenandoah before our trip to Italy. They made sure their relatives in Paulinuro welcomed us with warmth and hospitality. May she know the peace and healing of the Lord.
Rose was a beautiful, talented & vivacious lady. She & Ciro were always welcoming, often inviting us to stay for a meal, when we traveled with our Aunt Mary to the Heights. Sending prayers for peace & comfort to her family & friends. May she dance with the angels in Heaven & forever rest easy in the arms of our Lord.
