Dear Phil, Daniela & John, Arianna, Nathan and family, We are writing with heartfelt sympathy on the loss of our beautiful Antionette. Together with her and husband Phil, my husband Greg and I shared the joy of our dazzling grandchildren, Arianna (now 8 years old) and Nathan (now 6), born to our son John and their eldest of four daughters, Daniela. Toni was beautiful, hard-working and faithful to her family and church. She taught our grandchildren Italian and celebrated their attendance at language school. Everything she touched was beautiful and her home a welcoming place. But most of all, she left our family the legacy of a beautifully-written book, Antionette My Life So Far by Antionette (Toni) Gatti De Lucia. We will miss her. Love, Greg & Evelyn Kozoriz (Vancouver, British Columbia)
