-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Dear Angie, I read with sadness of Nick's passing this morning. Even though we've lived in Florida for six years, I still read the Express-Times online every day! I smiled when I thought of the two of you and all the bingos we shared. I hope someday that we'll all play bingo together again! With fond memories and God's blessing on you and your family, Billie Thatcher. The Villages, Florida
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Our deepest sympathy to the entire family of Nick Livera. Manny and I only knew Nick for a very short while they were room-mates at Brakeley Park Care Center. Nick often made us both laugh with his great sense of humor! I fondly remember one evening when he was reminiscing about his life - growing up in Sicily, when and where he met "his Angela", stories about working and raising his family, and more recently his life in Oxford. He was an interesting story teller. May you all be comforted in knowing that he is now at peace, resting in the arms of our Heavenly Father. Manny & Peggy Taylor
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------So sorry to hear about Uncle Nick's passing. When I think back to the many times Joe and I played bingo with him and Aunt Angie, it makes me smile and remember the fun times!
Love, Carol Verderese
