The posts were created to honor them & to know (a little) more about who they were.
However from a research perspective the information is essential for future family members who never knew about them or where they are buried.
Before I begin you can find Loreto & Maria Cedrone's headstones/cemetery info including most of the children's gravestones here:

A simple headstone can often provide more critical genealogical information than google!
You may drive by a cemetery without knowing you're driving right by the grave of someone you know. A grave you can easily see from the road.
While most who knew my parents have
passed or moved away there are a "few" locally who may drive right by unaware they're
doing so including driving by David Cuatt's headstone.
My parents are in the second row at All Souls Cemetery on Marble Ave. in Pleasantville NY 10570
Before we detail the google street view if you're driving in to this small cemetery (it's one way) their headstone is in the 2nd row to your left just before you exit. You can easily find them as they are across the street from Irvington St. You can see Irivington St behind them in the 2nd photo below & as fully detailed below the image.
You can easily see the back of their headstone (currently) thanks to google's street view below.
This view may change as some do but for the last few years as you "drive online" up or down Marble Avenue you can see their headstone. The easiest way to find it is to search for Irvington St.
Google street view may take you "down," Irvington so you may need to "swing around," facing the other way so you're looking at Marble Ave & the cemetery as shown.
Looking straight ahead behind the cemetery fence in the second row you'll see two black or darker headstones. My parents headstone is between the two as shown by the red arrow & as you can clearly see looking through the fence with the orange arrows.
When you're on Marble Avenue depending on your direction as shown below you will be just passing or approaching the cemetery exit. There is also a large oak tree as shown below just before/after the exit. The headstone is easily visible as you drive by in your car or online.
We live in a time where we can each "see," one another online or on the phone.
I can also travel to Pleasantville to "visit," my parents in less time than it takes to physically drive up n' down Marble Avenue.
I have also made my mother's parents
Loreto & Maria (Cellucci) Cedrone & my father's mother Grazia (Gentile) Tocci available here including David Cuatt's.
David was the son of (my sister) Diane & her husband George Cuatt.
Click on each photo to better read the captions.
However I noticed in the first photo below the caption is too small to read. I have explained it here:
Standing at my parents gravestone walking
towards the two identical monuments below the dark arrow (They are identical to the monument seen to the left) continuing past them crossing the pavement you'll approach the back of the Grandparent headstones as shown & explained in the 2nd & 3rd photos below.
You can also easily find the Grandparent headstones driving in (it's one way) as you approach the monuments as shown by the yellow arrow the front of your car will be facing towards facing towards the headstones. You can see my car further down in the photo directly above.
David Cuatt was the son of my sister
Diane (Tocci) Cuatt.
As you look at the cemetery on Marble Avenue there is a side street named Castleton Street
see Castelton St is directly behind it.
If you're driving in the cemetery David is in the first row to your right just before you exit.
