Our sympathies to the Cerniglia and Parlapiano families. I was privileged to know the Cerniglia's in Rockford, in southern Illinois(Herrin, Carterville), and Springfield. While in college at Southern Illinois University in Carbondale, my father Val Eddy would visit and we would go to see the Cerniglia's at Coo Coo's - a really happening place in southern Illinois even without the bowling. I remember well the great restaurant in Herrin and the hunky picture of Ted in the Guys of Southern Illinois calendar. Later, in Springfield, I would talk to other members of the family or run into Mary Martha at work. Having moved around the State of Illinois, making new friends, it was really nice and comforting to be able to have great Italians from Rockford in those cities too. This is a great family and we are very sorry for your loss. You all have certainly had your share. Be comforted by friends and God, I pray.##imported-begin##Valeri DeCastris and David Beccue in Rockford IL##imported-end##
