“Roberto”
You lived in a wonderful villa there and you felt you fit right in with the loving and fun people and all that Italy had to offer and your letters to me from Brindisi were signed “Roberto”. You had many friends from work and there are pics of you sharing late night dinners with friends at your villa. I believe you were nearly in heaven then.
You -being the sweet son that you were- brought Mom to Brindisi for a month and it was the dream trip of a lifetime for her. Being Catholic, Moms holy place was Rome, and the Vatican, where the Pope resides. You graciously took her to all the wonderful churches in the area- in Rome and elsewhere. When u travelled, you secured housing at a convent for her and she loved that.
she wrote a book about her travels. So fabulous for her.
Somewhere I have several photos of you living at the villa, and I will try to get one and place it with this story. I remember how happy you were here-so happy and free. You felt at home. It was a great time in your life. I remember.
Love, Sista
