Miracles visit us in so many hidden ways; Mattie was surely one of those gifts, sent to enrich all the lives of those he touched. His touch is felt by all who know his family, especially those of us privileged to work with you, MJ, his dear mother, and our exemplary coworker. The Hood School 101ers were so sorry to hear of your loss. Their serious little eyes would warm your heart. . . a tribute to all you give to all of us every day. What you and Mattie have given will surely come back to you.
With heartfelt thanks and hopes,
Mary Mahoney
