Mia loved to travel as well as visiting the casinos. She was an avid fan of the Boston Red Sox and was rarely found without a game on her TV. Christmas Eve was a time-honored tradition at Mia's house, full of love, laughter, and chicken soup. It was a place to learn, to play cards, watch the lights in her Christmas village, and catch up with loved ones.

Mia was an incredible person, selfless and full of love.  She will truly be missed.
