Patti

Great news from Isabella

tonyc — Mon, 19 Apr 2010 13:24:22 +0000

Isabella has been accepted at The Shipley School, an outstanding private co-ed school, in Bryn Mawr. She will start 6th grade in the Fall, 2010. We all wish her continued success. Patti would be very proud of her, too.

By the way, Isabella Catherine’s birthday is November 10, 1998. A very happy day for all. We hope that she has the affinity throughout her life for making many true and wonderful friends just like her Mom.

2010 and the future

tonyc — Sun, 04 Apr 2010 14:49:24 +0000

We begin the year knowing that it is the 5th year of Patti’s passing. A lot has happened to each of us, but through all of it we have remembered Patti and the joy she gave us.

Looking ahead, while no longer posted here, there will be the usual gatherings of Patti’s friends at cancer fundraisers such as those mentioned in past postings below. Keep an eye out for those advertisements, publicity items, and messages from friends for future dates for these important gatherings. Donate if you can. Someday the cure will be found.

Likewise there will be the annual gathering at Barnaby’s on the anniversary of Patti’s birthday. I’m sure Isabella will be attending in the future. Barb will continue to keep you posted on the event.

When there is significant news, other than these aforementioned gatherings, it will be posted here. Mail is always welcome at tonyc @ patticrispino.com. In the meantime, you might also visit the gallery on this website and at pBase for more pictures of Patti’s daughter, Isabella, friends and family.

A good time was had by one and all - Happy Birthday

The annual gathering was joyous as ever with dear friends, from near and far, celebrating Patti. Some photos are in the Gallery 2009 album. Thanks to all.

Please Support Patti’s friends in the 2009 Philly Komen 3-Day

Your support for Patricia Fitzgerald and Cassandra Burke will be appreciated in the effort to find the cure via the Komen 3-Day Walk. It’s an amazing undertaking by thousands who raise millions for research.

The Tortured Tootsies

The Philly 3-Day is the weekend of October 16-18. On Saturday, 10/17/09, the trekkers pass the Cheering Station in front of the Wawa at 2d and South. It’s both amazing and inspiring to see and cheer the young and older, women, men, and children in this great effort. If you have the time, please join me there; it’s worth the trip.

Join the Peppermint Pattis in Wilmington, Sunday, Oct 18th.

Success in Denver for Amazing Sally

Despite major preventive surgery in May, Sally did the Komen 3-Day with vigor and much support from friends and family. Congrats! Rumor now is that both Sally and Ron will do next year’s Philly trek.

If you know of any of Patti’s friends or your friends or family doing the 2009 Philly 3-Day, please let me know so we can add our support. Thanks.

The Wilmington Walk is moved. The participation, coverage and funds raised have increased dramatically since this event got started a few years ago. Your help is greatly appreciated, and most of all, we hope to see a large gathering of Patti’s friends. Thanks to Renée for the update

Save the date for the Making Strides walk in Wilmington, DE. There is a NEW location this year. It will be at Rodney Square which is in Wilmington. More information to come later.

Pete graduated college.

tonyc — Sun, 17 May 2009 09:37:10 +0000

Patti would be proud of her brother. As parents, we are proud, too. All four siblings graduated college as ambitious, productive workers with a great value on friendships: Patti - Drexel University & Penn State University MBA, Barb - University of Delaware, Gina - St. Joseph’s University, and now Pete - Loyola College of Maryland.

While the current economy presents a serious challenge to his first goal of finding meaningful employment, we have no doubt that Pete, like his sisters, will continue to be successful and happy with wonderful friends.

Sally doing well

Prayers and good thoughts do help…..Sally’s major surgery went well last Thursday, and she was not only home on Saturday, but went to church with the family on Sunday. Amazing, but not really surprising, Sally is planning on doing the Denver Komen 3-Day in August. More to follow on that.
