    Great Aunt Mary was my last living contact with my Buccella relatives. My grandmother was Jean Paolucci and she would bring me to Aunt Mary’s when she visited. She always made me and my sisters and our children welcome. And oh could she make great ravioli. We kept in touch by email and letters for years but lost touch after she left the asst. living facility. She touched my life and I was better for it. We will miss her. Our love and condolences and blessings to her dear ones.
