“Dear Alan and family, we are so saddened of the passing of Joy, who was an absolute joy to know and have in your life.n She was the first neighbor to greet us to the neighborhood with a lovely cake and we will never forget her. I always remember the lovely lunches I had with her. Always happy and kind. We will truly miss her. Love, Grace & Michael Caraccio.”
