First can be seen the guestbook from the anniversary Mass celebrated in 2002. Notice how the priest signs his name with "Sac." for priest.
The wonderful pen and ink sketches are by Maurizio.
In the bottom photo can be seen the same guestbook, dating from 1959, from the Mass yesterday. Notice the skull with the biretta which is often depicted on the graves of deceased clergy as well as the serpent biting its own tail, a symbol of eternity with cascades of funereal cypress.
Small bits of Catholic culture.

IN PIA RECORDATIONE and not IN PIE RECORDATIONE... sorry for being a pain, but I bet don Franco would have noriced immediately
(oh, I just read Anonymous' correction... and I can't let it go...)
I think he meant "noticed" not "noriced" which is so funny... considering... :)
But all is constructive and edifying critisism - so I hope no one's offended.
You mean "criticism"...
