Message to the Family: We are honored to provide this Book of Memories to the family.

Message to the Family: In a few days it will be Christmas. We will do our family traditions however there will be two people missing from the table. You are missed so much Daddy. RIP xxoo

Message to the Family: I missed hearing your voice yesterday. You calling me and asking who's this when I would answer the phone lol. Thinking about you and Mom all the time. 💜

Message to the Family: I hope you liked what Frances and I did on the bench for you and mommy on your one year anniversary. I know you also saw what happened to it, but that's ok. No one can ever take away the memories we all have of you and mom. Frances told me the beautiful story of how you visited her the other day! Brought tears to my eyes, but happy ones. I hope you are smiling, laughing and proud we are following through with your wishes. I'm sure there were moments where you were shaking your head too. I think we all have, however we are sticking together. Miss you daddy xxoo 💔

Message to the Family: Hi Dad I came to visit you and Mommy today. Thank you for coming by and letting me know you were there with me. It's been hard not having you guys here with us. There are always things that remind me of you both. Sometimes it makes me smile and other times makes my eyes fill with tears. The holidays will be here again before you know it and it's just another reminder that we will be celebrating them without you. I wish I could be talking to both on the phone or at the house right now instead of through a message. It would be really nice to hear your voices right now. 💙❤

Message to the Family: One year today Dad you left us. 365 days of tears, memories, and heartache. It seems like everywhere I turn I am reminded of you. I look at my kids and see bits of you. Some of my favorite memories with you : you teaching me how to throw and catch a baseball, standing on your back to get the knots out, filling the freezer one father's day with toasted almond ice cream bars, throwing pistachio shells at you, going to all the Mets games with you (dreaded seeing that awful team lol), all of Harry's baseball games, Sunday dinners, the countless talks and conversations, your wisdom and advice, when you made my high school yearbook 😂, the family values you instilled in me, you holding each of my kids for the first time, our shared love for animals, every Christmas, watching you tell the same stories you told us as kids to my kids and nieces and nephews, giving you haircuts, cooking for you, us taking the "old peoples" bus together and so much much more! This week I've watched and listened to all the videos I took of you the last few months you were here. Sometimes they calm me, other times I cry and sometimes I laugh because you were right. Hearing them makes me feel like you are speaking from the other side. You are missed beyond words can express, you are loved so much, and we know you are watching all of us. One of our last talks meant the world to me and I listen to it as a reminder of how you felt as a father and a person. Your truth will always live on with me. I love you daddy always and forever. Xxoo

Message to the Family: Daddy, tomorrow makes a year you left us and went to a better place. So many memories are replayed in my mind and are with me always. The talks, the advice, the cooking lessons, the songs, the movies, the laughs, the cries, the smiles, the jokes, the dances, the driving lessons,helping me with homework, rocking me to sleep, telling me stories,all the life lessons, the list goes on. You as a grandfather was such a joy to see. The kids always talk about you and mommy. We tell stories and look at pictures often. I can honestly say they will all be better people because they had you and mom as grandparents. You both made a special impact in all of their lives and I'm very grateful for that. You were right Dad, and you said that I would say it out loud and I have things you said that would happen have and it shouldn't have surprised me but some of them did. You think as a kid ok sure but now as parent myself you have those ah ha moments and say crap they were right! Daddy you are missed and loved very much. I know you are with all of us always with mommy by your side. Keep watching over us ❤

Message to the Family: This day last year you signed yourself to life support. I was racing down to the hospital and missed seeing your eyes open for the last time. I live that moment through my sisters memories of your last spoken words. Next week will make a year. I still CANNOT believe it. No words can take away the pain,no comfort exists and it doesn't get easier in time. Sempre nel mio cuore! Xxoo 💟💔💟

Message to the Family: Happy First Birthday in Heaven Daddy💔 Last year I remember cooking you breakfast, we ordered pizza for lunch and the kids and I sang Happy Birthday to you. You blew out the candles and the kids wanted you to make a wish. I took so many pictures of you that day. I hope you enjoy the celebration we are having for you today and you are celebrating to the fullest with mom and all our loved ones in Heaven. We are keeping our promise to you 💟 Love you and miss you everyday!! Xxoo

Message to the Family: Thinking of you Dad especially being your Birthday month. Miss you more than words can express xxoo 💔

Message to the Family: Happy Father's Day in Heaven Daddy. Your first one in Heaven 😢 The memories of last year's celebration brings tears to my eyes, but I'll hold those memories close. I love you Daddy and miss you so much 💔 xxoo

Message to the Family: What I wouldn't do to see your face. The first father's day coming up without you. I was lucky to have 40 years with you and mom. I wish it was more. Miss you dad. 💔

Message to the Family: Dad, I've had several dreams about you over the last week. One night I woke up laughing from our conversation. It will be nine months soon since you passed away. Nothing is easier. Conversations replay in my head all the time. I remember you always saying in your "talking voice", Josephine when your father is gone remember my words. I remember thinking at the time you couldn't be more wrong. Now that you are gone, all I can think about is how right you were. I love you Daddy and I miss you more than words can express 💔

Message to the Family: Dad, I miss you so much! Xxoo

Message to the Family: Happy Easter Dad xxoo

Message to the Family: I just wanted to remind you today is Mommy's birthday. I'm laughing right now because you always knew everyone's birthday, numbers and could hear people speaking a mile away!!!! I hope that is still the case and you can still hear me. Surprise Mom today and take her Europe, she always loved it there and I hear the rates are cheaper by you. If I don't make light of all this Dad, I think I'm going to break down over this next week. Give Mom a big hug for all of us. Miss you all so much. 💔 Xxoo

Message to the Family: It's almost six months since you have passed away. I just watched all the videos I took of you two weeks before you passed. I miss you Daddy 😔 When do the tears stop? I know it never will! Xxoo Josephine

Message to the Family: Dad we are supposed to get some snow tomorrow. The first time it snowed I thought oh crap I have to go and clean your car! Lol I miss your phone calls and you driving crazy 10 times a week going to the store. Steve makes fun of me because I was blue bloods everyday. I was upset since they aren't playing it on Tuesdays for some reason and during the week now it comes on at 4 instead of 3 so it's one less hour now. It's still on all day on Thursdays though. I still haven't seen every episode yet so I'm just keep on watching 😊 I told mommy that I will come and see you both soon. I wanted to on Monday but I had a nail in my tire and I went and got it fixed. Talk to you soon love and miss you dad ❤

Message to the Family: I miss you Dad. Tomorrow makes five months. Think about you and Mom every day. 💔

Message to the Family: Daddy, I'm sitting in front of your grave crying my eyes out. I wish I brought a shovel to remove the snow. I cleared the bench and sitting on marble in negative degree weather is painful, but not as painful as losing you. You put me through so much in our time together. I just keep saying it was for a reason. I never got the reason. I can only assume. Just why? All I ever wanted from you was acceptance. Your actions formulated my outlook on how men will always be. Your words and actions will forever be imbedded in my mind. I have forgiven you. Our last ten years together I only ever wanted to hear your approval. Your mind was never programmed to show affection and I understand that now. I'm lost but I'm strong. Christmas was so hard. No New Year's call. I'm a lonely mess. No matter what I love you Daddy. RIP 💔

Message to the Family: Dad I'm having a hard time this past week. I guess because it's getting closer to Christmas and the reality is setting in that you and mom won't be here with us that is getting to me. Everyday I try and put a brave face on and go through the motions not wanting the boys to see me upset. I know that you would want us to be happy and not sad but it's hard. Please keep watching over us. Love you and miss you.

Message to the Family: I simply miss you Dad 💔

Message to the Family: Two months today Dad. It's not easier, it hurts just as much as it did when you left. Missing you is an understatement 💔

Message to the Family: Dad today marks one month since you passed away. At this time last month we were all by your bedside talking to you, holding you, and wishing things were different. Only a month ago and it seems like yesterday. I miss you so much and I talk to you everyday. I love you Daddy. Rest In Eternal Peace 💜💔

Message to the Family: Daddy I simply miss you 💔

Message to the Family: 💔 Missing you 💔

Message to the Family: I find myself coming back here so much. I know we just said our final goodbye's on Friday but it wasn't final. Today marks five months for Mom and I still cannot believe you are gone too. I find myself listening to your messages, looking at all the pictures. I hope you are proud of all your children as we all did the best we could to send you off the way we thought you would like. Please visit me Daddy in my dreams. Always look after all of your children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Life will never be the same without you. Xxoo

Message to the Family: So happy to know you are finally at peace and hopefully happy with the way we handled your wishes.

Message to the Family: R.I.P John are one in a million, and will be missed. May u rest in the sweetest peace with Fran💜

Message to the Family: Dad, There are no words that will express how much the kids and I will miss you and Mom every day. As much as Josephine and I drove you crazy as teenagers with our shenanigans, that love was always there. While you and Mom were always my second parents, I will always have in my heart yours and mom's unconditional love and support at the worst time of my life. Nick, Olivia and William were better for knowing you just a short time. I will keep you in my heart always. Love, Jen

Message to the Family: Dear Josephine & family SOO sorry for the loss of your Father.Although I never met you, i feel very close to all my Facebook family. May he R.I.P

Message to the Family: Even though I am new to the Ambrosino family, I wish to send my sincere condolences to the entire family. I can see from his pictures that Uncle Johnny had a strong presence, and big heart for his family. I know he had a big impact on all of your lives, and he will be greatly missed. Please just remember, that our time her on earth is just a human experience, and that energy never dies. Energy is eternal, and continues indefinitely. He is with all the other souls, having a heavenly experience now, light and love is all he knows now. He has left earthly sorrows behind, and is in complete bliss now. May he enjoy the love & light of his bride and family who has crossed over before him. God Bless everyone he has left behind, and may they feel his unbounding love for them. Amen

Message to the Family: Daddy, I just can't believe I'll never hear your voice again. My heart is broken. 💔

Message to the Family: Dad,I know you are resting peacefully now and you and Mommy are watching over all of us but I can't lie and say that it doesn't hurt knowing I won't be hearing your voice or stopping by the house to come and see you. Our live will never be the same but we will try our best to carry on all the things you have instilled in our lives for years to come. We love you.

Message to the Family: Uncle John you will be missed so very much by your entire family. My heart goes out to Debbie, John, Pattie, Josephine, Harry, Frances and Marie, and to my Aunt Dot and Uncle Joe. May he rest in Peace. Your Maryland Family, Big Marie, Billy, Patrick and their families will miss you very much. 💔💔
