Tuesday, October 7th, 2008My sister-in-law Taina walked 20 miles on Saturday in Avon’s Walk 2008 for Breast Cancer along with our friend Raquel. Tai dedicated her walk to Jennie Vechionne, among others, Diana’s nonna. Thanks, Tai. We’re proud of you!
Here’s to the Next 11 (and beyond!)
Sunday, June 22nd, 2008Eleven years ago yesterday, we wed. She’s as beautiful as ever. According to Judah, the same can’t be said of me. Be that as it may, I’m glad she’s still mine. Here’s the back story to our romance (as originally published in our wedding program, 06/21/97). When people speak of love, they often include references [...]
Friday Foto Finish
Friday, July 6th, 2007Diana and her grandmother, shortly after Nonna met Jesus. More Nonna pics here. Reflecting on family today, I remembered the “Television Evangelist” webcast from several weeks ago. I’m a fan of Odd Thomas and appreciate his critique of many current televangelists in the song. But the caricatures of today don’t eliminate the impact annointed Word, [...]
Please pray for Aunt Mary
Tuesday, January 9th, 2007Diana’s Aunt Mary has defied the doctors by living with Ovarian Cancer for the better part of ten years, after she was given months when they first diagnosed it. We got the call yesterday that she’s taken a turn for the worse and only has days left. Please pray for her and Uncle Jonny and [...]
Nonna’s powerpoint online
Friday, August 26th, 2005Thanks to my “virtual” friend Bob Campbell. (We’ll actually meet one day soon, I hope, after corresponding online for almost a year!) Bob is hosting it on his personal website for a month or so, here. There may still be a glitch with the sound (does anyone kow how to embed the music directly into [...]
Free online disk space?
Wednesday, August 24th, 2005Any tips on acquiring free online disk space for storing and sharing large files? I want to post the slideshow I did for Nonna’s funeral (20-25mb .ppt file) for a month or so, so family can download it.
Worth repeating
Monday, August 22nd, 2005“I am here to give a testimony of a generous God, of a loving God, of a healing God, of a God so kind, that He has led us to ministry for Him, leading other souls to the Lord.” – Nonna, mid-to-late 1970s
Divinely inspired
Friday, August 19th, 2005At Nonna’s memorial service, Boom2 read the following testimony that Nonna had written in the 1970s. It reminded me again how inextricably linked Diana and I and our families are from before either of us were born. Nonna had shared it many times with me over the years, but hearing it recounted last night was [...]
It is finished
Friday, August 19th, 2005The rites associated with mourning the loss of a loved one ended today with Nonna’s burial at Oceanview Cemetary on Staten Island, in a plot 150 yards or so away from her father Joseph Ingarra and her husband Richard. The memorial service last night was special. Never have I attended one that ended with a [...]
Four year olds grieve too
Wednesday, August 17th, 2005Judah gets it. Death, that is. The last two weeks have been hard on him. When I told him about Caleb, he got pensive and said, “I’m sad because Caleb won’t be able to see his parents anymore.” A promise that Caleb could see them from heaven satisfied him for the moment. Then last week [...]
