“We had my mother’s celebration of life yesterday. The Tower Road Piesanos catered our event. There are no words to express my gratitude to Tim and Mischa for their outstanding service. Tim worked very hard to make everything perfect - even putting up with all my requests. The food was over the top. To quote my cousin “ We want to Chris Ruth last night and this tenderloin puts them to shame. “. Thank you for making mom’s send off perfect. Amy“
