Phil, Beverly and family, we are so sorry we just found out about your mom’s passing. Phil and Violet were our neighbors on Nassau and Matanzas street for decades and remember them always having the best Christmas parties! When we built our home I thought oh how lucky am I to have such a sweet Sicilian neighbor, she thought Carlos’s hit the lottery by finding a nice Sicilian girl and married her, my husband knew her long before we were married, Phil and Carlos grew up across the street from each other and Phil was the best man in our wedding. What a fun loving, classy dresser she was even after she retired she would go out dressed up just to get her nails done. Their home has been demonlished and new homes went up but this neighborhood was never the same, shouting hi across the street , checking on family members, those were the days that a neighborhood was a true neigherbood. Rest in peace Vi you lived one hell of a life, children, grand children and friends that truly loved you. Love, Carlos (Carlito) and Darlene Gonzalez
