I’m looking forward to this Easter weekend as it’s a time for our family and friends to gather in celebration, reflection and love.

Family Traditions

We Capparelle’s have long carried our family traditions throughout the generations and this Easter will be no different.  We’ll eat no meat today nor have we partaken of any during the Fridays in Lent.

My wife Ann is busy planning for the buffet feast she will prepare for Sunday after services.  There will be the traditional egg dish.  Egg symbolizes Easter as a new beginning and when Grandma used to bake the fresh bread, she would always have an egg nesting in the center of the loaf.

All seven members of our immediate family will be at our home along with cousins, grandchildren’s boyfriends, and longtime friends.

Instilling Family Values

While many of our relatives back in chilly Connecticut will be celebrating around inside dining room tables, we’ll be enjoying our beautiful weather on the patio in typical Arizona fashion.  Despite the 2,000 mile distance, we’ll still share the warmth and connection that traditional family values instill.

That’s why I enjoy what I do every day.  I learned early on in life to protect the things that matter most to me in life.  There’s no question that family means everything to me, as I’m sure it does to you.

I’ve protected my family.  And, I want to offer the same protection to you and yours.

Have a wonderful Easter

May you and yours have a blessed, peaceful, Happy Easter.
