Send Condolences/Message to Family Dear Cousin Joanie; I will truly miss Billy, and all the love he offered to anyone who he felt needed it. He was a gifted communicator and always had time for you if you needed his help. One memory of Billy for me was when I was about 17 and was skindiving in long island sound he was on his boat (as usual) and saw me diving well off shore. He pulled along side of me and said come on aboard my boat and have a drink with me. I said sure...and with that he reached over the side of the boat grabbed my arm with one hand and with one quick motion lifted me out of the water onto his boat, scuba tank and all. I said to myself my god is he so powerfully strong. Billy never boasted about what attributes he had he just used them as they were needed. The great friends that he and my father were was a treasure. I never saw my father simile and laugh so much as when he and Billy were together. He was my cousin, my friend, and truly one of the best of Gods children...God Bless Billy Mosca! Willie Spada Joan, There will never be another Billy. Memories of him will last with us forever -- he was a mentor and a good friend, and my boys will miss Uncle Billy. I learned a lot from him, and will always be grateful for his loyalty and friendship. Our prayers are with you, Billy and Lynn. David Scanlon
