GUIDO POSILLIPO To my Nonno It's so hard to believe that already ten years have flown by since you've passed away. It's even harder to believe how much has happened since then. As you look down on us everyday more and more seems to be happening in the family. Recently, Nonna has just gotten home from visiting her relatives in Italy. After arriving home she's been spending most of her time at the lake and even more of her time in the garden. Uncle Peter celebrated his 40th birthday on August fourteenth and Auntie Tam now sings in the church choir. Devon and Luc are both growing up way too fast and are starting to look like young men. Uncle Mario just started a new job and from what I've heard it's becoming a huge success. Auntie Leah is expecting a new baby! The family seems to just get bigger and bigger. I guess you can't call Emma a baby anymore; she's growing up to be quite the beautiful young girl. Both my dad and Liz are working in Vancouver and are keeping very busy and doing great! As for me, I'm going into my second year of high school and still it seems like yesterday I was your little granddaughter who you babysat when my mom was at work. The little girl who you took to the corner store to buy me my favourite treats and spoiling me every minute I spent with you. I cherish the memories I have of you Nonno, and granted I had very little time to love and learn about the man you were I will always have a place in my heart for you. Even as our lives get busier and the more changes occurring, you're always in our heart and mind's. We love and miss you very much Nonno. Tiamo
