"HEY, AUNT MAGGIE, I CAN SMELL YOUR GRAVY!"

On Tuesday, February 26, 2008, Margaret Corino Luglio went home to her eternal reward. Today, March 1, friends, family, and other relatives from the old neighborhoods are streaming to Wildwood, New Jersey, to escort this special lady to her peaceful resting place.

They’re flying in from West Palm Beach, driving down from Boston, and Belleville and Nutley are emptying onto the Garden State Parkway in the early morning hours. If you could look close at the faces of these respectful travelers you’ll notice a special phenomenon—they’ll all be shedding a tear and smiling at the same time.

“Hey, Aunt Maggie, I can smell your gravy!”
