My heart goes out to you Theresa and your family.
I so often remember the good looking couple who attended the same Mass as I did when I was at Immaculate Conception parish. Vinnie always seemed to have a smile on his face. It was, I believe, a testment to you Theresa, who was his loving companion for so many years.
Peace, Light, Love

Uncle Vinnie will be missed by so many. I have so many cherished memories of him and Auntie Theresa and they will always remain in my heart. He was a kind and gentle man with a big heart. May you rest in peace until we meet again……..we love you! Our thoughts and prayers are sent to Auntie Theresa and the rest of the Crivello and DeLuca families.
