Dear Peggy, Emmanual, Adele & Danny:

We were so sorry to hear of Louise's death. She was such a beautiful lady and so very humble and loving to all who knew her. I remember with great fondness all the great times we enjoyed at your cottage in Marshfield. Tom and my dad talking 'shop', while Louise was in the kitchen cooking her famous spaghetti and meatballs. We all had so much fun and laughter.

We were blessed to have known her and she is now with Tom and Tommy. God bless you all and our prayers are with you.

Love, Jim & Jean Gately & Family
