Raymond J Barnabei of Branford, New Haven County, CT was born on February 5, 1919, and died at age 71 years old on February 4, 1991.

Aunt Zizzi.. Anna Barnabei was born in Italy, later arrived in the USA and settled in Chester, PA. She resided with her sister, Concetta Barnabei Moretti, who married my grandfather whom I never met named Gabriel. My mother recently passed away, and was the daughter to Concetta & Gabriel, Had a brother named Joseph who tragically passed away at 4 years old in a bicycle accident. In addition to Joseph, there was Albert, Mary & Josephine (who were twins), Gloria (my mother Born December 27th 1937, and Gabriel 'Duke" Moretti the youngest of the siblings. Aunt Zizz was precious. She taught me embroidery when I was only 11 years old. .. I was so thrilled to have time to be with her.. and she might not ever have known how much of an impression her spending time to teach me meant to me.. something I never forgot about growing up. and most specifically what was called the 'french' knot. I have fond memories of being called to help food shop for My wonderful Great Aunt Zizzi, when Aunt Mary & Aunt Josephine (my mom's twin sisters) were never licensed to drive. I'd go from store to store and as a younger young woman always wondered why they needed to go to one store for certain items and still another for other groceries.. How little I knew the reason until I too became a mom and had to provide for my two children. I understand the intelligent thinking, the ways they did things and the value of things.. Aunt Zizzi had her birthday one day before mine and that was something we both shared and always were mindful of.. I remember getting to visit her in her later years at Fair Acres Nursing Home.. and even as an elderly aged woman, she was still so very beautiful.. Beautiful blue eyes, and her laugh was adorable, something I'll never forget. I love you Aunt Zizzi .. I miss you, my mom, Aunt Mary, Aunt Jo, Uncle Albert & Uncle Duke. wow.. How I treasure all those memories growing up and getting to respect and appreciate my relatives. My father passed away at the age of 47 in the year 1987 my mom, Gloria, never remarried.. and now they are once again united. I miss them every day of my life. I am 4 years away from the age of 60.. I guess they are all there waiting for me to arrive.. and I hope when I do it's a peaceful transition into Heaven to be with Christ our Lord and Savior. I know that this is a fact.. if anyone reading this has doubts or skepticism you can rest assured, you need to go with the flow here.. it's real it's true and it's extremely just. I know things.. I 've been told I know things, but i knew and know things without people having to tell me.. As I tell you.. Your only way to Heaven .. the ONLY way to eternal life in Heaven is through knowing and accepting and believing in Jesus Christ. I love you Jesus. I thank you Jesus.. and I am grateful to you my Lord for all that you've gifted my life with in your blessing me.

Born in Abruzzi, Italy, came over on the boat at the age of 16. I dont know much more other than she was a culinary expert. She made everything homemade.. spaghetti linguini, Sunday Dinners were amazing and the fragrance walking into her home on 24th street in Chester, is familiar when I have an opportunity to visit a high-end Italian restaurant.. It's also the same fragrance and scent I have experienced at a place called Car Mira's Deli in Boothwyn, PA .. traditional quality Italian recipes.. Conchetta.. (we called her Nooo nooo (neu neuh) I believe or was told is Italian for Grandmother. She was an incredible person and did everything to support her family including helping her husband, my mom's dad, my grandfather, whom I never got to meet as he died at an early age of an enlarged heart and heart related health conditions, who was a Tailor and had a business in the city of Chester, way back when Chester was prestigious and classy and clean. no grafitti or crimes back in those days.. Noo Nooo would help him with sewing garments for his customers, take care of all her children and was a dedicated provider and incredibly loving grandmom to me and all my cousins in the Moretti family. Always cared to ask me how my father's side of my family .. namely My Great Grandmom Leonora Elizabelth Galucia Brown (whom for some reason I guess because she was born in 1890 in Coudersport, PA) cannot be located in any ancestery/geneology searches.. but yes, Noo Noo.. knew how much Grandmom Brown meant to me and always would care to ask me how she was when I'd get to see her.. I remember that.. I remember the 'way' she said my name in her Italian / English accent. I love you Noo noo.. you are remembered fondly.
