Noni

This is Marie. She has one of those great big Italian families. Everyone from kids, grandkids to great-grandkids showed up to celebrate her 86th birthday.

Here she is with just a fraction of her grandkids. They all call her NONI.

This was my favorite picture of her from the day. She sat alone for a few minutes just watching everyone. I am sure she is thinking of how proud she is of her family and how much she loves them all.

This is one of her grandchildren holding his daughter, Noni's youngest great-grandchild.
