I wrote this earlier and I'm not sure if it worked or not but-
Just back to read a little, and talk to her in a way I guess. It's almost her birthday, so it felt right.
Where to start...
Can't believe it's been over 3 years already. Mom made amends with Scott, Lyndsey got married and had a son (his name is Hayes- you'd love him, because of course you would), no one on our side has heard from Brendan since your wake (which I kind of get), Collin might propose soon, Addie's even taller, Will's a pro at hockey, Charlotte's slowly opening up more and more each visit, Keith and Wayne are being asshole's about us reconnecting with Scott, and your husband is even more of a giant dickhead now and we can't stand it and are begging you to haunt him, and I'm still in college trying to figure it out and write a book but having the time of my life (in a way), found my version of mom's Brian (his name is David, you'd love him), and sometimes I consider changing my last name to Barry because both pop-pop and my dad piss me off and I want your name instead. The family kind of fell apart without you, but we're still here.
It still feels like you died yesterday. Sometimes at night and I notice it's around 10 I go to pick up my phone to call you like I would every night, even though I know you won't answer. Not this time, not the next or the time after that.
I put slivers of you in almost if not every story I write, immortalized forever in my mind and soul. Maybe one day I'll finally publish one and the world will know how magnificent you were.
Love you forever and ever,
- Hannah, your sidekick
edit: WHEN I SAID HAUNT YOUR HUSBAND I DIDN'T MEAN KILL HIM!!

My grandmother was the most amazing person I've ever known, she always will be. I might only be the middle cousin, but she was just as much as a mom to me as she was to my mom and uncles. This is a little late, it's almost been six months, but I only just found out about the tribute wall. Thank you all for the kind and beautiful messages.
My grandma taught me so much about life. About our family, her experiences, her love for us and those who've already passed on on her side. And I will always keep those stories with me.
She always wanted to go to Ireland, I wanted to go with her. We never got the chance.
I promise I'll go one day, grandma. For the both of us.
Your butterflies miss you, we always will.

I met Pat and the family in 1980 when I was 13 years old. She was my best friend’s (Dawn) mom. As soon as I met her, she welcomed me as one of her own. She was like a second mom to me and had no problem treating me as one of her own. After high school, I moved to Florida, we never lost touch and continued to have our “mother/daughter” talks. When I came to visit, she baby sat my 6 month old baby for a few hours, she pureed fresh vegetables for him because it was better than the "jar junk" food she called it, he never ate jar vegetables again..Thanks MOM, LOL! That’s how she was, always thinking about others and putting their needs first. She was a great role model, to know her was to love her. She was a strong, caring, loving and extremely selfless person who touched a lot of lives in many ways. Though she may not be in our sights, her love leaves memories that will live in our hearts forever. She will be deeply missed. My thoughts and prayers are with the Leggiadro Family.

Where do I honestly begin...one of my earliest memories of you (when I was 4?) is reading my books to me, which led to me reading under the covers after lights out with a flashlight. So you basically taught me to read. You were my cool older cousin and I wanted to emulate you from the start. We had many good times in Wildwood, in Manhattan, in Carteret, and wherever we went together. When you were celebrating your Sweet Sixteen at a party in the basement of your family home at 31st and 3rd you had a corsage with 16 sugar cubes. I vowed I would have one too when my 16th birthday arrived. But the florist had no idea about sugar cubes. Traditions fall where they may. But you, in my eyes, were an establishment.
If you were coming to New Jersey for any family event-at Lincoln Ave or Atlantic St-it was something I happily anticipated. Even when you one day showed up with a cool Italian boyfriend with a sweet red Impala which he named "Gypsy." He immediately was on my short list and probably was my first crush.
Through the years there were so many more good times. Seeing my first "grownup" movie with you and Pat-West Side Story-is something I remember to this day. Your wedding...the birth of your daughter and her christening-where they played the Four Seasons singing "Dawn" an endless amount of times-were the best events. A trip to Lake George with your two babies is still fresh in my mind-always wonder if Scott remembers that.
And all through these good times was much fun and love. Walking your German Shepherd in the rain when you lived in Yonkers is a definite standout. Visiting you in North Salem and realizing that Keith was already a handsome young man taller than everybody else was remarkable. Flying to Wayne's wedding with my baby daughter was something I would probably have done only for you.
You were always an inspiration to me. There is so much more that I recall and will always hold dear to my heart. You always had the deepest concern and love for my family and my children...which mirrored the love you had for your own. Thank you for enriching my life the way that you did. Rest in peace, dear cousin, and I will once again be fulfilled and rejoice in these memories when we meet again.

I am very sorry to learn of Patty's passing. My dad was very good friends with both Patty and Pat. I remember the trips in the summer to Yonkers to visit when I was just a little kid. It was so exciting to visit as my sister and I got to run around and play with Dawn, Scott and Wayne. From the warm welcome of hugs, food and candy it was always a fun time. Thank you for always being so kind to us kids and for being such a wonderful friend to my father for all these years. You will be missed.
Rest in Peace
Love, Lisa Salemi

I met Patty in NYC when I was only six years old. As I look back through the years I have such fond memories of her laughter, kind heart and fun spirit. Always one to welcome and comfort others before herself. She was a loyal friend to me and I will always hold a special place in my heart for her. Patty's cooking was always welcomed as her food was amazing. She brought many a people together in her home and at the dinner table. I am glad our children played together on visits, as many happy memories were formed during those times. I hope you know how much your friendship meant to me. You will be remembered fondly as a wonderful woman and friend. Rest in Peace Dear Patty.
Love, Joseph Salemi and Lori Aurora

Dear Cousin Patricia,
I am going to miss your emails, your phone calls, your strong hugs, kisses, and oh yes your sauerkraut!!! You were always there for me to talk to and to make jokes with. I wanted this whole COVID thing to end so we could get together again on your deck or by the pool at least one more time. My entire family loved you so much. You always asked how we were doing and wanted updates on what was new. I still clearly remember talking to you on the phone when I was home with a torn meniscus in my left knee( about three years ago).You laughed so hard (in the most loving way only I could understand) when I couldn’t get my leg off the couch and I was shouting OMG, OMG! I laugh at that too! I love that we laughed at those kinds of things! Having you there was always a comfort, and now there’s an empty space. But I just know what you would say to that. You’d say, “All right, babe, I’ve got to go. Just remember all the things I told you and take care. Love you.”
Rest In Peace Patricia. I love you too.
—Michelle

“Mrs. L” as I always called her, was a second mom to me. In 1972, at the age of 5 I moved to Sedgewick Ave in Yonkers, NY (around the corner from where the Leggiadro’s lived) and met the Leggiadro Family. For many many years, as our neighborly friendship grew, Mrs. L became my second mom. Always welcoming, caring, and even watch over our safety. She was always there to lend an ear if you had a problem or a band aid when we would skin our knees. I’ve grown to the man I am today with her help. It saddens me greatly to have learned of her passing and she will truly be missed. The McPhillips family conveys their deepest sympathy and heart felt condolences to the Leggiadro family in this time of mourning. Mrs. L, you were a formidable strong woman who will be greatly missed by all of us, whose lives you touched and may you Rest In Peace.
