Mrs. C, what a beautiful women who had a lasting impact on how I looked at family and friends. You are finally resting with the Lord and so many of your friends, bask in his glory.
And I might add that you knew what me and your son were doing wrong before we did it but just kept us safe from hurting ourselves, and for that I thank you!
Love to you and all of the Capabianca family!
Len, to have raised you, your mom had to be an incredible lady. So my heart goes out to and is with you and your family. I know your mom through life stories of a son. Stories of your mischievous youth, with her guidance and wisdom, to your mature mother/son relationship, complete with gathered memories and complexities; always with love. Your frequent references to her are a testament to you and your strength as a family.
Mrs Capabianca You will be missed. Watch over your wonderful family.
Auntie Carol ,my godmother ,you will always hold a place in my heart, you we’re my mom’s sister, and like a mom to me all my life. I will miss our nightly talks and laughs.. we got each other through a tough time and I will cherish that the rest of my life. I miss you and love you.. like I said…always..
My sweetest Aunty Carol
I will miss you and think of all the great memories we had especially when I lived down the block. I always knew I could talk to you and you were always there for me. You said we were strong warriors and share a special bond and you were so right. Our bond was love and you will be in my heart forever.
MrsC … I know this is late but I think time is not an issue in Heaven. I will miss you dearly. You were my second mom. I remember all those days at the house, hanging out by the pool, causing trouble and being part of the family living all those years across the street. I was always one big block party on Hughes Street. It was a special pleasure “coming home” and spending time with you and Mr C, bringing back all those forever memories. Please say hello to my mom and dad up there and hold some open lawn chairs open for all of us to sometime in the future to take a seat in the forever summer of eternity
To the Cappabianca Family, most of you won’t remember me except for your dad, Lenny and wife Carol. I was the datughter in law of thier neighbors, Louis and Millie DiMattia in Northvale N.J. . I spent many hours at Carol’s kitchen table as a young bride needing the kind advise and wisdom of a cherished neighbor, Carol. The entire family, Louis, Millie, Don, Diane and Debbie are now gone but they would have been so saddened by Carol’s passing. They as well as myself loved and valued her. I only recently came across this obituary. I became widowed in 2021 just before my beloved, Don’s 80dth birthday after a wonderful 57 years, We also lost our precious Tina Marie at age 33 in 1998 after a long illness. My grief has taken its toll on me as your grief must have to each of you, but we must have faith in seeing them again whole and healthy in the new system,. God bless you all. MARYANN DIMATTIA
