Angelin and Angel, Aunt Mar, Uncle Dave, Todd, Renee, Ryan, Kaeli, Corey, Steve, Josette, Paige and Sabrina, Chris, Steph, Hannah and Mandie, and Family.
Our love and Prayers are with all of you. We are so sorry that you had to say goodbye to Big Gram. YOU ALL are like family to Ours. All the memories of us spending Big Grams Birthday together and Halloweens together. The times she would be at Renee's house telling me in her Big Gram way her advice about her kids. Which I totally respected and loved. She used to come over and see Paige and Corey on Wednesday's when I babysat for them. I used to love watching her be so protective of ALL of her kids young and Older. She made Kara feel like one of her Grandchildren also. Which meant so much to me since her Grandma had passed away. I remember the picnic at Renee's house and Big Gram in that baseball cap and Nancy next store teasing her. What fun and caring memories our family has with yours. WE miss her very much and we know how much you all miss her too. She is always in your Hearts and Memories as well as ours. We love you so much. Bob, Kathy,Bobby, Kara, Casey, Danielle, and Gianna,

Dear Ange and Family,
So sorry to hear about the loss of your mom. She was a wonderful mom and person. Remember the times I babysat and she lived downstairs. We had some good times then. I will cherish those times forever.

This is going to hurt terrible, I know since I have lost my mom, they say it gets easier , NOT.... but when you have seen the pain and suffering they have gone through, you realize it was time for them to leave us.. They will always be in our hearts, our children and grandchildren. So we have a piece of them forever....cheirsh the time we had. She was a special lady and I am very proud to have known Mary.... May God bless all of you in your time of sorrow....

God Bless and Love to all. All our love from you cousins Laura and Bob Baker

Marilyn,
My heart is heavy today. I am so sorry for your loss. I have wonderful memories of your Mom, "Aunt May". Some of my fondest are those with her sisters...I just adored them all! I am lucky to have known them. You are in my prayers.
With Love,

To Ang, Angelin and Family,

I am sorry to hear about your mother's passing. I will forever very fondly remember your mom as the "greatest cookie baker" as she never forgot to bring me a batch each month when I helped her with her insurance issues at Mixco. She will be missed by everyone but by now she has most likely met up with the true love of her life and is living happily ever after.

Sincerely,

Doreen Messina
