Our beloved mother and grandmother, Edith Grasso, 88, was called to heaven by our Father on December 10, 2008. She was preceded in death by her loving husband Tony on December 5, 1977. She was such a blessing to all of us with her love, compassion, caring and courage that she lived her life by and will be missed by her family and many friends she made along her life’s journey.
