RIGALI, Florence Anne Born January 3, 1927 and passed away on August 15, 2008. She resided at 1523 el Miradero Avenue in Glendale, California at the time of her death.


Proud aunt of 14 nieces and nephews; beloved friend of Mary; and loving friend to many. It is with a great deal of sadness that we say goodbye to "Fluff." She set an example for all of us in both living and loving life to the fullest and dying with dignity, humility and courage. Her strengths were her great faith and wonderful sense of humor. She truly believed life was fun and well worth living. During the long months of illness, she was especially kind and thoughtful to all, and always had a smile and a funny opinion about the frailties of the human condition. She would point her finger to the sky as if to say "We know who's in charge." So as we say goodbye to Fluff, there may be a tear in our eye, a pain in our heart, but there will always be a smile on our face. We are better and happier for having known and loved her.


A Vigil will be held at 6:30 p.m. on Friday, August 22, 2008; Funeral Mass will be celebrated at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday, August 23 both at St. Robert Bellarmine Church, 133 North Fifth Street, Burbank, CA 91501;
Interment to follow at San Fernando Mission Cemetery.
