Dominick Antonio Vitale grandfather  The man behind my life. My father did what he did and I have to admire him regardless of my opinions on his way. Photo coming of my father.

The house I lived in when I was a child. The porch is a bit different and the walkway. There weren't awnings. This was real country territory back then. There were a lot of trees around, grape vines and more greenery. This house was sold when my dad died in 1976. Thanks to my grandfather for this house. He owned the land behind our house and beside our house all sold when my grandfather died. My grandfather loved to work in the garden and other work related issues for money. My grandfather imigrated from Italy and died before I was born. I never met him. I never met my grandmother either. The  land far back behind this house was owned by the local doctor. Dr Bondi would come to our house when we were sick. We use to play in his yard when we were children. He seemed to have hundreds of acres.

Christina Anne Bowser Vitale grandmother's grave compliments of Fran Kenney.

A speech by Fran regarding my grandmother.

Christina A. Vitale, born December 8, 1892, died August 24, 1925, was the grandmother of Elizabeth Vitale, who now lives in California.  Because of the renovation, I was able to locate Christina’s grave and send pictures to Elizabeth.

Elizabeth wrote me in emails,  “I heard about the restoration and how many hospitals closed. It is amazing she is in one (which) was still open and the cemetery restored.”

“How lucky is this to have 26 hospitals, 20 close, 6 remain and my grandmother has a tombstone from renovation. Thank everyone for me.”

Though there are unanswered questions about her grandmother’s life, her time in our facility, and why she died at such a young age, 33 years old, her grandmother has been honored like all of these other 900+ graves.  I was proud to place flowers on Christina’s grave, and to tell her they were from her granddaughter, Elizabeth.
