That's me when I was 5 in Italy (on the right) with my paternal grandma Clementina and my sister Lina. I will never post a current pic of me because you will ALL die of shock and I'll be sent to the slammer for murder. 😼

Die of shock? Hardly.

One thing I hated about Italy, once a woman's husband died, no matter how young the widow, she was expected to wear black until when/if she remarried. So, most of the older women wore black and when together gossiping they looked like a gaggle of witches. I don't know if they still do that.

Clementina was the only grandparent I met, the three other grandparents died before I was born in 1942. She died 9 years after that picture was taken, at age 82. I was 7 years old when I left for Venezuela and never saw her again. 😢

Wow!! Both you and your mother look a full generation younger, and all three of you are gorgeous!

Me, today, smiling at your pictures. I can see I am past due for a hair cut and beard trim, LOL.

Love your smile. Always keep smiling. :)

Thank You. I have been told I look 10 to 15 years younger than I am and my mom who is 75 has gotten the same sort of compliments. Even my daughter who will be turning 17 next month always says she looks younger other than the fact that she is very tall. She has a very youthful look to her face definitely a few years younger than the age she really is.
