I have sent out invitations for Reno's Memorial Service,
but just in case I missed any of his Caring Bridge
friends who live close by, here are the details:
You are invited to join Cherrie Nanninga

And, in small print: The Metropolitan Club

Reno, the love of my life, passed away last night at
about 10 p.m. He was comfortable in a wonderful hospice
and left us knowing we all loved him dearly. Family
members and and a few close friends called and spoke to
him over the past few days. His cousin, Consuelo, was
even able to speak to him in Italian from Rome. Annalisa
arrived just after he died, but she, Dino and I had the
opportunity, over the past month, to speak to him
individually and to make sure we left nothing unsaid.
We will have a small service for family in March, and a
larger memorial service in Manhattan in April. I will
let all of you know the specifics once the plan is in
place. Thanks ever so much for all your prayers and good
wishes. They meant the world to me. A major thing that I
learned from this experience is how important
communication is to people who are experiencing a
crisis.
RIP, my wonderful Reno.
