I can’t pin point the precise moment that Rosalie and I became pen pals; it was a natural friendship via cards. I always enjoyed getting mail from her, her little notes made me smile, and I’m grateful for the many times I was able to begin a correspondence to her with “Dear Mama Volpe.” It has been a blessing knowing Rosalie and to have my life enriched by the stories Donna has shared about her brilliant mother. Rosalie was a precious gem who was the collector, scribe, and keeper of family history, now she leaves her own legacy to family and friends of a full life well lived.
“Dear Mam Volpe”, I wish your peace and thank you for touching my world.
