Marie and family,
My deepest sympathy to you all. I'll never forget the many visits when we were younger. The swapping of recipes for your mother's great baked goods, the squid pie at Christmas, the girl talk.
I'm sure she will be greatly missed. But her legacy will live on in each of you.
May God be with you at this most difficult time.

With much love,
Nancy Olivolo and girls
