Linda,
I don't know if you remember me--we went to St. Cecilia's School together. I also lost my mother several years ago. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this most difficult of times. I remember being at your house and your mother was always very nice to me. May God bless you,
Beverly (Brauch) Neatrour

How do I thank someone for such wonderful warm memories? I will remember her wonderful giving nature. That great happy smile and how happy she always was to see you. She made your day just a little bit better. I will never forget the twinke in her eyes. She was a giver in life and made everyone around her feel love. I'll always miss you Aunt Mary.
