Catherine (Kay) Riccio represents all the best of Americana! She is the definition of what it means to be a Christian. Hers was truly a life in service of others. Knowing Kay meant that you always had an example of love, strength and resilience to look up to and lift your spirits. I am so grateful for her influence on my life and our community. My best to the entire family.

Dear Riccio Family,
It has been a pleasure getting reaquainted with your mom over the last ten or so years. We exchanged letters, phone calls, and when I was in town, I would go and see her. She would ask about my parents and how they were, she would inquire about my children. She would fill me in on your family and what was going on around Coville Street and the village. She would advise me on what to do on vacation! We have just gotten home, and I was going to write her this week and fill her in. I will update her in my prayers….
My thoughts and prayers are with each of you. Wonderful lady, great neighbor, terrific friend, she will be missed by all.
