Paula “Nana” Lomas

Paula Lomas with my mom Anita Della-Rocco “Family” can be such a broad term we use to describe relatives, friends, and loved ones. For me, my Nana was the one who taught me what the word ‘family’ really means: a person who is always there, always loving, and always putting you ahead of their personal life. Nana and me (Paula “Nana” Lomas and John-Anthony DeMarzo) It’s true what people say, “You don’t really know how much you miss someone until you’re unable to talk to them anymore.” I remember growing up being blessed that she lived only two hours away. ...

My Granny was probably the kindest, most open-hearted person I’ve ever met in my life. She had such warmth and generosity of Mildred Kinnaird on her 90th birthday spirit that it just spilled over into the people around her, making their lives better and happier for knowing her. With her birthday and Mother’s Day both just around the corner, I always find myself thinking of her a lot at this time of year, especially when I pass a garden bursting with spring flowers. Mildred was born deep in cotton country in northern Louisiana in May of 1919. She lost her ... Read more
