| [ Back ] ...took me to a medical facility where I stayed there for about a half hour. Unfortunately after that occurred, I was restricted from going on rides. In August of 1995, my family went on a vacation to Pennsylvania. On January 17, 1981, my sister Mary got married to Walter Lindstrand. I was the flower girl. On September 27, 1981, my sister Debbie got married to Robert DelGatto, but she got divorced in 1996, and remarried to Robert Yellitz on December 28, 1997. They got married on a cruise to Bermuda. On June 7, 1986, my sister Colleen got married to Joseph Esatto, and was married to him for maybe six months and then remarried to Frank Beltrani on March 25, 1988. They eloped but then later on they had a big wedding with the entire family at the Knights of Columbus. On May 1998, we had a huge party for my nieces Danielle, Candace and Amanda. Danielle made her Confirmation and I was her sponsor and Amanda and Candace made their Communion. It was a great day had by all. We made our own catering slogan named LOBOY which stands for Lindstrand, O' Leary, Beltrani, O'Leary, Yellitz. Don't call us we'll call you. In August of 1988, we gave my sister Colleen a baby shower, and on that day she asked me to be the Godmother. I was so elated I told everyone the good news!! :) On September 15, 1988, my Godson Brian Anthony Beltrani was born. In August 1997, my whole family went to Virginia for a vacation. We went to Bush Gardens, Water Country. We rented two houses; One for Beltrani & O'Leary (Mom and Dad), Aunt Doris, Aunt Claire, Uncle Vern and Josh. The other house was Yellitz and Lindstrands. It was along the water. It was so beautiful. In May 1994, my friend Colleen and I went to Arizona because her cousin, also my friend, was graduating from High School. We haven't seen them since they moved. We had such a great visit I can't wait to go back! :) June 25, 1989, I graduated from High School. After the graduation my mom and dad had a big party with friends and family for me. When I was opening gifts I began to cry because I was so happy and overjoyed that people helped me celebrated this special day. September 11, 1996 was the day my dad had his first stroke. It was my parent's anniversary. In February of 1998, my dad had a major stroke. He was in the hospital for about three weeks. He had a surgery to clean out his arteries in his neck because they had a blockage. It was an incredibly difficult time for me. In 1991, my mom had a gall bladder operation. She had to have it removed because she was having a lot of pain when she ate anything. In August of 1998, my mom had a knee operation. She was in the hospital for about three weeks. On February 14, 1999, Valentine's Day, my mom had a stroke. She was downstairs on the treadmill and she said she was felt herself get hot. She then fell and got herself onto a chair. My father didn't hear her but when he went downstairs he had seen her in the chair. My dad then called my sister Mary and said to her "I think you mother is having a stroke." With that, my sister ran over there to help. In the meantime, my dad called the ambulance and they took her to the hospital. When my sister came home and came downstairs and saw me I was hysterically crying while watching TV. I asked her "What's the matter?" and she replied "Mom had a stroke." I then said "NO! No, not mommy!" We went to the hospital and called everyone; my sisters and brother and I; We all met at the hospital. They were running all kinds of tests on her and after a while we finally got to see her. She had slurred speech and her whole right side was paralyzed. She got better as time went on. She was hospitalized for three days. In 1998, my cousin Vern got married. My entire family went down to Florida to visit and go to the wedding. My cousins from all over the US were there and we all had a great time! After the wedding, my mom, dad, Aunt Doris, Colleen, Frank, Brian and Amanda, all stood in a condo. We also went to Sea World. The best part of Sea World was the polar bears. I could have stayed there for hours and hours. Well, that concludes my Bio for now. Thanks for reading. I will continue to add more to my Bio soon when I get a chance! Hope you've enjoyed reading about me so far, come back soon for updates! :) Please sign my guestbook by clicking here! Thank you!
