In Memoriam of Vincent Farruggia – March 18, 2013

Dad, it’s five years on March 18 that you left us and went to heaven. Then five weeks later came back and took mom with you to heaven. I know over the years that you struggled with pain from your arthritis, heart and lung problems, but the two biggest ones was your dementia and Alzheimer’s. But you never complained and you dealt with moms illness the best you could. You fought through it all everyday until the end. You always been there for us when we needed something and always enjoyed your family. You enjoyed working at the fruit stand after you retired from the salt mine. You enjoyed talking to everyone you met. I believe you enjoyed life to the fullest..
A day doesn’t go by without missing you and mom.
