“In loving memory of Larissa Acocella. Larissa and I bonded over our desire to work hard, being Fordham girls, and our love for our big Italian families and New York. She was always so kind, the hardest worker in the room, and super funny. She was a bright light, who never let on how much pain she might have been in. I’m fortunate to have known her and to have learned from her. Sending my heartfelt condolences to her family and friends and keeping her memory in my thoughts and prayers.”
