To the entire Shea family, I am so sorry for your loss. I have fond memories of living next door (or should I say attached) to your family and playing back and forth in our basements. Those were the good old days. Then hanging together on Magdala St when we were teenagers, they will always be great memories for me. Please know that although I will not be able to be there, you will be in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless. Love June (Amerena) Pierce.

Dear Danny and Family,
How I as a child love to hear all the antics that would go on in Jamacia Plain! My mother and Father always told the stories with such flair and fondness of the days gone by. As I grew I understood why... the stories where about their great friends....Rita and Danny. Although many years had passed they always had the great memories to treasure. Anne and Buddy always kept you both close at heart.
Danny I am sad to hear of Rita's passing. I hope that you also have kept the old days close to heart and have all those memories to get you threw this difficult time. I know you have a wonderful family by your side to comfort you.
I hope you know that the Hartigan family have you all in our thoughts and prayers. Joanne
