To the Carotenuto Family.... Your mom was a gem...like my mom also, she had this ability to always make it all about family without a big fuss and without a lot of commotion...She was simply "Phyllis" and her home and her heart were always open to everyone. My mom and dad loved her...and i realize more now than when they were alive that their judgment was impeccable. They felt your paretns were sincere your mom always made them feel welcome. We are blessed to have grown up with them and each day that we live, we are given the opportunity to make them proud by how we treat others and how we respect our families. I treasure my friendship with Mommy and with all of you...I know she is in peace and i also know she is not alone. Rest in Peace Phyllis and know that you are loved. xoxo
