When I am gone, release me, let me go. I have so many things to see and do, you mustn't tie yourself to me with tears. Be thankful for our beautiful years.
I gave to you my love. You can only guess how much you gave to me in happiness. I thank you for the love you each have shown, but now it's time I traveled on alone.
So grieve awhile for me, if grieve you must, then let your grief be comforted by trust, it's only for a time that we must part, so bless the memories within your heart.
I won't be far away, for life goes on, though you can't see or touch me, I'll be near. All my love around you soft and clear.
And then, when you must come this way alone, I'll greet you with a smile, and say "Welcome Home."

This space is not big enough for all of the wonderful memories she has given us throughout the years. Rest in eternal peace mom.

Cooking for an army is to say the very least! I'll never forget when I showed up to Aida's house having made b-day cakes (x2)to celebrate Rose's birthday. After seeing what I had baked and brought, Aida immediately offered to go purchase a sheetcake from the Shoprite! It was hilarious! In the end, we never even finished the 2 cakes I had brought over and to this day our family has never let me live that down..lesson learned..sheet cake for everyone!! Sure gonna miss you Aida, but I know you'll always be right near by.

It's so hard to believe that you're no longer here with us. You always gave so much love, and my heart is truly broken. I will always miss and love you my Dear Aunt.

We are very sorry to hear about Aida. We enjoyed many happy hours with her and Flip. We remember how they routinely traveled to Ocean City to attend OC Pops' concerts. We will miss her smile and hugs.
