Dear Nick, Michael, and Marilyn---
Tim and I were saddened to learn of AUntie Mary's death. Another "great" passes....so sad. I have many happy memories of THanksgivings at your home.....as well as other family parties. Your mother is always smiling in those memories.
I wish we were able to get to Boston to honor her during this sad time. You will all be in our thoughts and she will be in our prayers...........she and Uncle Nick now rest in peace together again.

To the DeMarco Family:
Sorry for your loss, my parents Gertrude and Edward OBrien of 22 Lenoxdale Ave were good friends of Mary and Nick over the years. I spent some time with Mary outside the voting place at Florian Hall as she
helped Chris Iannella for various elections. She was always very nice to me and my family. My mother is the same age ( as Mary )and she now lives at St. Joseph's Nursing Home in Dorchester. We will miss Mary.
