Dorothy Mae Cardillo
February 08, 1933 - June 11, 2024

So sorry to hear about Aunt Dot(Snoonie). So many fond memories of her and Uncle Frank in Union City and at the shore. They are both missed. Aunt Dot was always so fun and Uncle Frank just sat back so calm and observed! Hoping you are all doing well.
