What I will remember most is her phone conversations with my mom. I can see Ann listening intensely (with her eyes closed of course) as she and my mom discussed all of their ailments. Only a select few will understand and find this funny, and that is because you had to be present for the conversations. My mom always told me that when you grow older, your lucky if you can count your true friends on one hand. I never really understood what that meant until I saw her friendship with Ann. They truly were the best of friends, and it was a beautiful thing to witness and learn from. So to that I say thank you, thank you to Ann and my mom for showing me what true friendship means. You will forever be missed Annmarie.

There just aren’t any words to express the loss of this kind loving and beautiful soul. She will be greatly missed , but definetly never forgotten.
We hear her infectious laugh and see her smiling angelic face. So many wonderful memories of her especially our cookie fights who could grab them first . We all laughed till we cried.  She was an exceptional cook for sure and I loved chatting on the phone forever. Her wonderful words of wisdom and uplifting nature we will always remember and treasure including the time we went to  their 25th Anniversary party and we both wore the same dress that was hysterical so many wonderful times.
We will miss Ann very much. She will always be in our hearts.
Forever Loved,
Aunt Di and Uncle Stevie


My deepest condolences.  I remember when Ann Marie first came visiting Calyer street when she was dating Peter.  I was just a kid but she always greeted me with such a big smile 😊  Also bumping into her and all of you at Mt. Carmel feast, we never planned it, but it just happened. Keep all the memories close to your heart and enjoy them.  Rosemary 

Dearest AnnMarie, I still remember the day that I met you. Our children were in the same nursery school class and we started talking and realized we both came from Greenpoint Brooklyn and that your husband and I went to St. Anthony's. We both lived in Richmond Hill and our kids became best friends. We spent alot of time together taking the kids back and forth to school along with my younger son as our sidekick. We shared alot in the years that followed. Even after you moved out to Long Island, we still shared alot. (Like having my sister for your neighbor. Boy do I remember that story you told me.) 
I remember when you told me you were having Robert and I was also having Freddy a month  earlier. Who would have known. I will always have a special place in my heart for you. You were always there for me also. We had such good times 
 together that I will never forget.  Rest in Peace my friend. Love you.❤❤❤

Ann Marie....we spent so little time together when we were young in St Cecilia's....but you have always been a part of my heart....I remember your parents treated me like family and I even remember visiting your aunt rosie...the best was when your uncle was going to take us to the airport to see the Beatles but they fooled us by taking an earlier flight....
When you found me on facebook several years ago.........I was hoping we could get together and see each other again...was not meant to be....your son Peter wrote me a heartfelt message and thanked me for loving you and that he grew to know me thru you.....you will always be in a special part of my heart...and I know your spirit will survive and flutter over everyone...I cannot come to say goodbye to you....I want to remember your laugh and smile and by the pics in your tribute I see you remained the wonderful person I knew way back when...
Rest in peace my dear friend
Till we meet in the clouds.....love,Denise 

Annmarie I will miss your wonderful smile  and your great personality.  We had  alot of laughs, good memories,  and good times .  You were beautiful inside and out and you had a big heart.  One of my favorite memories was when you were making pignoli cookies and they didn't rise they were flat like a pancake.  You said what happened that are flat.  We both laughed.  I also enjoyed coming to your house on Halloween and dressing up. I was thrilled to have you and your family at my apt for the Christmas Eve fish dinner.  I will miss our talks in church. I love and miss you.  I can't believe you are gone.  RIP my dear friend.  Camille Scala

My heartfelt thoughts and prayers are with you and your family

These pictures show just how much of a Wonderful Life She had!!
Your Mom will be by your side Forever and Ever.
