| Lynne and McCrea Clan,
We loved your limerick and are so happy your enjoyed last night. Its always fun to celebrate together. It was great seeing your Mom. Robin was truly our leader this year, she found our caterer and she created our Bread Pudding Recipe and she even attempted to keep me on track. She is amazing and a big thank you goes to Robin. Several people asked me who our caterer was this year, it was Pepper and Salt on Old Dixie, south of 4th street. They have a restaurant and catering service and they are known for their beef brisket. We want to thank everyone who helped this year, setting up and cleaning up. Many hands make light work of the hardiest tasks. It is wonderful to live in a community of fun and caring people. Thanks again and it was fun seeing so many last night. Maddie |

| It's with great sadness that we announce the passing of Nick (Mele); he died peacefully in his sleep at home with his family early on March 4, 2023.
Nick was a truly gifted and accomplished musician (guitar, mandolin banjo, flute & trombone) and those of you that were fortunate enough to listen to him play for various events at PBV will remember him well, often accompanied by Joanna on vocals and accordion and it made for a rare listening treat.
Walking past their front door you could often hear the sounds of familiar tunes and you knew that you were listening to something rare and beautiful.
PBV was a warm and welcoming place for Nick and for many wonderful years it was his second home with Joanna.
Nick was a kind and gentle man with a great sense of humour and he will be forever missed by his family and friends.
We will raise a gin and tonic (no lime) in your honour, shed a tear and wish you well on your voyage. Love you forever...

| We will miss you Nick. We were neighbors and garage mates and got to know him as a quiet, gentle, smiling man with a kind word for everyone.
We loved hearing the happy music coming from their condo and especially loved when Nick and Joanna would play for all of us at the club house.
They were a perfect pair. Our prayers are with Joanna and all the family.
Love, Al and Joan |

| It was with great sadness to hear of Nick’s passing. Kevin and I didn’t know him as long as most PBV residents but considered ourselves lucky to know him. He truly loved his wife—it was evident in everything he did for her and the extra things he did to make her happy. His talents will be missed and his humor was an addition to any gathering. The world was a better place because of Nick. Sincerely, Kevin and Barbara Kelly

| So very sorry to hear of your loss. Nick was a kind and caring man who was also incredibly talented. Peter and I feel so glad to have known him and enjoyed many evenings in his company. Every get together was a celebration. He was a loving husband. I remember him bringing flowers to Joanna at the bridge table poolside for an impromptu birthday celebration. He will certainly be missed at PBV.

| Beautifully said Lynne!!
They had no idea that their idle accordion playing, or guitar strumming, and beautiful piano music went beyond the confines of their home. It was a secret joy brought to a lot of us during those impromptu concerts. I do hope Joanna continues to spread joy upon us again when she returns.
Just a small addition to my first note to you Joann and Lou, Lynn's words inspired me and awakened my memory of the really wonderful joy that very frequently came from your parents home, we were truly blessed🙏

| How I loved the sounds of music-making that wafted across the lawn around the E building! Nick and Joanna often treated us to an extemporaneous concert (whether they knew it or not) and it was always delightful. More than the music, though, what I loved most about Nick was the twinkle in his eyes. He seemed to always be smiling, casting joy. We are sending our warmest, caring thoughts to you, Joanna and family. Nick will be truly missed.
