To the family of Mary Conaster, Please accept my deep condolences for the passing of your beautiful mother and grandmother. She was such a delightful and sweet little woman. I feel privileged to have known her and I was blessed to be afforded the gracefilled opportunity to bring her The Holy Eucharist on many a beautiful Sunday morning. Mary and I would often sit and have a very wonderful conversation when I would come. Our visits were never rushed. She would talk about her family and ask about mine. On Sundays I was always happy to see her name on my list of those that I would go to visit. Her passing is bitter sweet for me. I will miss her smile and her welcoming reception whenever I would come. At the same, time I am so happy for her that now she is finally peacefully enjoying her eternal reward in the loving arms of God. God bless you all and know that your mom will remain always not only in my heart but in my thoughts and prayers.

Love, Mary F. Vallelonga
