Leontina M Bernard Holly A Villella Dolores J Chiappazzi on Mother's Day in the 1980s
On Mother's Day sometime in the 1980s, my Grandmother and Mother and I drove to Northeast, PA and had dinner at Bova's Italian Restaurant. On the way back to town, we visited Erie Cemetery to see the azalea and rhododendron garden. Lucky us, a friendly gray-striped kitty cat joined our picture taking group. A passerby took this picture of three generations. Each of us had different spaghetti sauce recipes and it could be a bit difficult sometimes navigating generational and personality differences. Nevertheless, love always triumphs and among the three here was love aplenty!
