Joni Iraci wrote a sympathy message

“Like a character from a Charles Dickens’ novel, my mother’s beginnings were rough. But her stars aligned and she flourished. She had a life fulfilled. My father adored her for the 7 decades they were married. Together they raised 4 children, had 8 grandchildren and lest not forget they experienced the rarity of having a great-grandchild. After my father passed, my mother was blessed to have a loving caretaker and many devoted friends. 1930 - 2025 —a dash well spent. Rest in peace Mom.”
