Kevin and Lisa, and the Lustica Family.
I am not sure what to say to I wrote something, below is in english, I also tried to translate to Italian.

We are here for you.

God Bless

LOSS OF A MOTHER.

Your eyes may be full of tears and sorrow, you can no longer see me smile, but look to your memories to the things that were,
Look to your heart and you shall see me smile.

Your ears may no longer hear my voice, the voice that laughed and chided, however, my words were still guiding.
Look to your heart and you will find your self, hearing.

I can no longer hold your hand, yet it guided you
While becoming a man, and it continues each day, as you
Reach out to those who are in need.
Look to your heart and you will find my touch, and my warmth.

When you inhale, you may not smell the fragrance you are used to.
Look to your heart and know, I am only a breath away.

Our eyes, hearing, our sense of touch is only temporary, on this earth.
The questions we have are many.
Look to your heart, for my love is eternal.

Italian:
PERDITA DI MADRE. I vostri occhi possono essere pieni delle rotture e del dispiacere, potete più non vederli sorridere, ma osservate alle vostre memorie alle cose che erano, sguardo al vostro cuore e lo vederete sorridere. Le vostre orecchie possono più non sentire la mia voce, la voce che ha riso e rimproverato, tuttavia, le mie parole ancora stavano guidando. Osservi al vostro cuore e troverete il vostro auto, sentente. Posso più non tenere la vostra mano, tuttavia lo ha guidato Mentre trasformarsi in un uomo ed esso continua ogni giorno, come voi Raggiunga fuori a coloro che è nel bisogno. Osservi al vostro cuore e troverete il mio tocco ed il mio calore. Quando inalate, non potete sentire l'odore della fragranza che siete usato a. Osservi al vostro cuore e sappia, io sono soltanto un alito via. I nostri occhi, udienza, il nostro tatto è soltanto provvisori, su questa terra. Le domande che abbiamo sono molte. Osservi al vostro cuore, dato che il mio amore è eterno.
