53 years of laughs, tears, memories; story after story. The Missel family and the Palizzi family moved in kitty-corner to each other in our new subdivision where we began our 53 years of laughter, tears, love, and a lifetime of stories. Frequently there would be an occasion/incident that would prompt Marianne to pick a nickname for a person. You are out there... I loved her, I'll miss her, and I'll always remember my wonderful friend, "Toes". Jennine Palizzi Shaw "Commander Salamander"
Memories
I remember when Jerry and I returned to the Missel house after attending midnight mass on Christmas Eve. Toes was at the dining room table with rolls of wrapping paper, ribbon, bows, boxes and bags. She looked at us, laughed, and said "start wrapping something!" We laughed hysterically wrapping gifts (some while the recipient was right beside us) in hopes of getting it all under the tree for Christmas morning! I think of this every Christmas Eve and remember most the laughter and crazy good time! I love that Toes could always laugh at herself and make everyone around her smile.
