"Behold, I make all things new" Revelations 21:5

       

 

Remember me with smiles and laughter,
For that's the way I'll remember you all.
If you can only remember me with tears,
Then don't remember me at all

Hattie Brocket Perrone, born into this world March 12, 1911, entered into eternal rest December 22, 2003. 

This website has been set up by her grandson, Michael Thomas Santos as a way of remembering her and celebrating the wonderful 92 years she spent on this earth. 

This will be my way of remembering a lady who has touched my heart and been such a part of me, and to just reflect on the memories that I hold deep with in my heart, that I will take with me to my grave.

Special people I want to acknowledge and thank for their loving support and prayers during this sad and difficult time in my life.  They are the following:

  • Sarah Penk - The little note that you and Jill wrote me only days after Grandma passed away, has been one of the greatest encouragements to me. Your spirit & your friendship continues to bless my heart and life.  I humbly thank you for being there for me during this sad time in my life.
  • Jill LaFara - I thank you Jill for your friendship and for your prayers during this sad time in my life.  Thanks for making me smile and laugh and just for being there for me as a true friend.  Your support, prayers and friendship I will forever be grateful to you.  It's helped me get through this difficult time!  I humbly thank you, my lil sister in Christ!
  • Melissa Duffy - The day of the viewing, I got your e-mail and that letter you sent literally gave me the strength and encouragement to get though this horrible day. This was absolutely the worst day of my life. I did not want to even wake up that day, I did not want to live, but your support and prayers gave me the strength to face this day.  You are an awesome friend Melissa and I love you in Christ.  Thanks for being there and for caring.
  • My Family - My mom/dad my brothers my family, with out your support during this time, I don't think I would have been able to go on.  Thank you!
  • JUMP5 - Your music during these incredibly difficult times has been so encouraging.  It has gotten me through some of the most darkest and depressing times in my life dealing with this loss.  I will forever be grateful to you all.  Thank you for doing what you do!
  • The Von Trapp Children - Your voices have soothed the very depths of my soul. During a time when the ache and hurt felt as if it consumed my very being, your voices soothed my aching heart during this difficult time in my life.  I will always be grateful to you all for this. Thank you!!
