Thank you to everyone for your prayers and lovely memories you have shared. I truly know that Mom had a great life. She left knowing she was loved more than anything in this world. Mom had faith and love. With that you have to be happy when you go. Though we are all so very sad now, we will also be very happy some day remembering our wonderful lives with her. I am finally not affraid to die. With the faith I have in God I know that I will be with her again. And with all the loved ones I have lost. I have been blessed to have such a loving and caring family.

I will miss my Mom forever until I meet with her again. I love you all. Love DawnMarie

John, Jimmy and the Mula Family,

I remember first meeting your Mom back some 37 or so years ago, at Pine Acres Campground in New Hampshire, when we were all just kids.

I remember talking to her many times on the phone, as we grew older and started to have children of our own, and she always had a certain love in her voice and always showed sincerity.

From the days of our youth to the days of our adulthood, she was always there for everyone and her voice will always be embedded in my thoughts and in my heart.

I always called her Mom, so Mom....this is Billy. "I will miss you for now, but I believe in my heart that I will see you later."

God Bless!

Now that everything is done and over mom, You're in a better place we will all go on doing what we do, You have so many friends it was a beautiful service. I think if I or we all could touch one person the way you touched so many, this world would be a much nicer place to be. I love you mom and I miss you.

Dearest Dawn,

Our hearts ache for you and your family from the loss of your Mom. Our prayer for you and yours:

Father, we pray for Dawn, her family and friends who are grieving. They're hurting for many reasons, and we ask You to help them through this season of loss. We reach out to You, the Father of compassion and the Source of every comfort, asking You to touch them with Your unfailing love and kindness. Be their God who comforts them as they're going through their struggles, and bring them through the difficult times ahead. Come alongside them in their pain, and strengthen them so they'll one day be able to help others who face the same struggles.
In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.

MY MOM
Over 50 years ago when mom and dad started there lives together they had decisions to make, some bigger and more important than others. The most important children.

I'm willing to bet, that is were things got real interesting for mom and dad, i'm under the impression that now matter how many books you read or classes you take, these things can only prepare you for so much, mom said she could fill volumes with what she did'nt know, mom and dad did things right, they showed us right from wrong and showed us the way. what we did with that information was up to us and if it turned out to be wrong mom never Loved us any less, she was always there. From Sunday drives to Uncle George's to a trip to Uncle Pat's for the day, from New Hampshire, to the Cape and all the trips we took to other places. I think alot of things special in her life happened even closer to home, the front porch on BOYNTON ST. alot went on there, Cub Scouts Girl Scouts, lots of friends and of course, who could forget the MULA CHRISTMAS PARTY, mom loved doing, doing for her kids doing for her family and even our friends, alot of our friends have always called her mom and will always know her that way. Loving children the way she did is a blessing, because now, more than ever, she will be watching over us, her husband, her children and there families, and most of all, her grandchildren, her grand children the are the future.

Know matter were we all are, know matter were we will all be, know matter what we will all do, mom loves us all.

I LOVE YOU MOM, AND I MISSYOU
JAMES

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, ""I welcome you.""

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......""My day was not in vain.""
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
