For my family The Pieri's, Lord watch over them during this time.

To my family,
I can still remember the times we spend with Uncle CJ, Sharon and Chris in Houston in 1968-1969. And when he worked for NASA I felt very proud of him during those times. Then spending time with him at my dad's wedding in 2010. I will miss him very much and my prayers are with my family both in Houston and Louisiana.
All of my love and may God watch over you all over,
Kathleen Marie Pieri Coleman

Chris and Sharon - Just wanted to let you know you and your entire family are in my thoughts and prayers. I know how you feel because I lost my daddy 22 years ago. It hurts, I know, it is okay to cry and grieve. It is okay to feel the way you do because that is part of grief. Just know my heart feels for you. Love and miss both of you.
