A service is scheduled for 11:00 am Monday Jan 24, 2011 at Christ the King Catholic Church in Richland, WA.
Dear Brenda and Dave,
I have so many fond memories of Aunt Dolly, but the one I cherish most is being her little flower girl at the wedding–and the worst possible snow storm that day. She always laughed when she told of having to spend her honeymoon with the the in-laws…but that they still found a way to have fun that night. I still have the little string of pearls she gave me to wear for the wedding. Besides that, I will always remember her smile and laugh…and her delicious cooking and baking. I am so happy they were able to come here for my mom’s funeral–that was the last time I got to see them and it meant so much. Be assured that she is at peace and together again with your dad and the rest of the family. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of you. I loved her picture that was in the paper. My love, Jeannine
My dearest condolences to the entire family. Dolly was a very special friend to many and I enjoyed getting to know her.
She was a caring lovely lady. She thought of others first and always had a smile We will miss her dearly.
Dolly was a great lady and a very special friend. I enjoyed our many times together and will miss her dearly. Her warm spirit and sweet soul was infectious to us all. My fondest memories will be when we were playing cards or just visiting. Over the years our friendship has grown and I considered her a sister and not just a friend. I loved her so much and will always think of her.
Heaven just received its sweetest angel!
I have known Dolly since she moved to Richland in 1998. I considered her to be a dear friend. As did so many…. She will be truly missed. I hope David, Mary Beth, Brenda and their families can find some comfort in knowing that she is resting in the arms of Jesus and that she is reunited with her Love, Nick.
Sometimes its hard for me to find the right words to say and tears just flow…then I saw this little verse. I hope it helps you like it did me. It spoke volumes to me!
Tears Are Words That Your Heart Can’t Say!
God Bless you Biancosino Family!
David & Brenda,
I just wanted to let you know how sorry I was to hear about Aunt Dolly. We were just talking about you guys on Saturday when were together for Jake’s Birthday Matt’s youngest. I asked mom if she had seen Angie’s pictures on line and we talked about the wedding. The first thing mom said was she was looking forward to seeing everyone together; especially Aunt Dolly. I know Aunt Dolly and Mom spoke often because almost every time I went to visit, she talked about recent conversations and what was going on with the grand kids.
We all wanted to make sure you know that we are thinking of you so I’ve spoken with Travis & he’s going to ensure that the flowers we’re sending get to the Memorial service on Monday. When you see the flowers, know that all of us are thinking of you and your families. If there is anything that you need taken care of in PA, please do not hesitate to contact me. I’m more than happy to help. Please take care and stay in touch. Love, Kevin
