"Momma J" was amazing. She was one of those people you felt you had known forever..the very first time you met her. I will remember fondly the very special day Grace and I spent with her and Katie in Hingham....she really made us feel welcome and I enjoyed just sitting and chatting with her. She will be missed.

Katie: we are thinking of you. Hope you are coping as best you can.

You are in our thoughts and prayers....
