Josephine Cometti As you look at all the wonderful photographs of the life of Josie Cometti, you will notice something - there are virtually no portraits of her by herself. Our family looked through thousands of photos for her funeral and memorial services and we found that in nearly every picture we have, over the course of her 75 years, Josie is always captured with someone else - her husband, her children, her friends, her grandchildren. This is because Josie was a welcoming and loving person who was much happier when she was with people and not alone. She was always talking, chatting, cooking, painting, playing cards, volunteering, working, dancing. She was always part of a community, even if she had to create that community herself. Have you ever noticed that in every neighborhood, there’s always one house where the kids always seem to congregate? That one house where the refrigerator door never gets to close, because everyone is in and out of it, and yet the fridge also never seems to ever run out of food? That was her home, and that was based on her effort and her hospitality. She was a woman of contradictions. She was born in Italy - moving over when she was only 20 years old. But she was fiercely proud of being American. With her husband Mario, she traveled all over the country, visiting and living everywhere from coastal Maine to Indian reservations in the badlands of South Dakota. She embraced her adopted country, and she raised her children as Americans, showing them an endless supply of love and patience. But this picture of an extrovert doesn’t tell the whole story. She was, in some less obvious ways, very shy and sensitive. Josie spent much of her childhood in a convent, being raised by nuns, due to illnesses she suffered through in the poverty of post-war Italy. When she was healthy enough to go home, her parents and siblings were like strangers to her. She adjusted, but the experience left her with a sense that family and friends and indeed life itself, were all things to be clutched closely as if they could be lost at any moment. It made her wary of loss but also determined to grab life and opportunity by the throat. At 19, when she met a dashing American medical student who asked her to marry him and move to another country, she set aside her worries and embraced the kind of change very few of us are brave enough to attempt. The world was bigger then - moving to the USA meant she wouldn’t see her family for many years. A different language, a different culture. But she took the chance, despite not speaking a word of English when she first arrived. She made it work, through sheer determination and with good humor. She could take a joke and she could deal one out too. The only thing she didn’t like was if you made fun of her accent - that might earn you a whack. She loved her husband and they became immediately inseparable from the day they met until the day they parted. They spent nearly 56 years together, going out dancing together every Saturday night. They even worked together, with Josie managing Dr. Mario’s office. They raised four children, lost one to illness and were lucky enough to be blessed with six grandchildren. She was tireless. Josie and Mario were always the first ones out on the dance floor and the last to leave. She was tough, stubborn even. When the doctors told her she had pulmonary fibrosis and gave her 2 to 5 years to live, she metaphorically shook her fist at them: “I’ll show you!.” She held out for eight years, thanks mostly to the amazing dedication of her husband’s care - but anyone who knew her wouldn’t have been surprised if she had been able to hold out for several years more, just out of sheer willpower. But when her illness took a turn for the worse, her family gathered around and she was able to finally let go. One of her grandchildren, unaccustomed to the idea of death, asked: “Does this mean I can never see her again?” Josie’s presence was so strong that it was hard to imagine she wouldn’t be here - even after her passing. We do feel her loss, and unfortunately, we won’t see her again, not in the same way as before. But she lives on, in her children and grandchildren, in the values she passed on to them, and she lives on in our hearts. Her presence has not diminished, it has only changed. She will be remembered by the many people whose lives she has touched. She would not have wanted memories of her to evoke sadness. She would have wanted her friends and family instead to continue to embrace life as she did - to laugh, to eat, to chat… to dance. Let us be together, not alone - as a community - the community she helped to make, and let us celebrate a life that was lived with determination, pluck and an endless supply of affection and kindness for the people she cared about.

Matt Lanier It is with great sadness we share that Thomas Matthew (Matt) Lanier passed away at home on Sunday, June 8th, 2025 after a hard-fought battle with Pulminary Fibrosis. He was 54. He is survived by his beloved wife of almost 23 years, Elisa Lanier and his cherished son, Thomas Michael (Mikey). He is also survived by his mother, Shelly Lanier, his sister, Jennifer Hofmann, his brother-in-law, Brent Hofmann, his favorite nephew, Jacob Otto and his father-in-law, Sylvan Finklestein, in addition to cousins and many friends. Matt was predeceased by his father, James Thomas (Tom) Lanier. Born in Baltimore, MD on March 30, 1971, he grew up in Lochearn, MD then moved to Owings Mills, MD and graduated from Owings Mills High School in 1989. After living in Ocean City, MD for the summer, he went to work with his father in the family business, Lanier Engineering Sales, Inc. He worked there for many years until the business was sold. Using the knowledge he learned working alongside his father, he went to work for Motion Industries. He worked his way up through the company, eventually becoming Operations Manager, where he excelled and was integral in shaping the branch into what it is today. He was admired and well-respected in his industry. He moved to Belair, MD shortly after getting married, where he built a life and raised his family. Matt played many sports all through high school and was “famous” for his front flip soccer throw in. He continued his love of sports and played on The Hackers Golf League for many years, even winning first place one year. He was an avid sports fan and loved attending and cheering for the Orioles, Ravens, and Mikey’s teams. One of his greatest joys was watching Mikey learn and excel at the same things he enjoyed, like skateboarding and surfing. Matt loved camping with Elisa and Mikey and visiting the beach to see his family. He was also a huge baseball card collector and trader. Matt was the kind of guy that was friends with everyone. He was generous, loving, loyal, compassionate, funny, outspoken and loved his people hard.
