Dearest Nana Kay - 417 High Street!!! What more do I have to say. That is where our journey began, where the path of my life was changed forever. You were my friend before you were my mother-in-law and I was blessed to have you remain my friend as I became part of your wonderful family. As one of my favorite songs say "You'll be with me like a handprint on my heart" for the rest of my life. "Because I knew you, I have been changed for good" I love you and will miss you always.

Dear Aunt Kay,
What better way to be judged than by character and success of the children you left behind? Ann Marie, Cathy, Nicky, John, Joe, Billy and Jimbo...I'm so proud to be their cousin... You did such a great job!
I will remember your laugh..your humor and your family loyalty forever. Your brothers, Joe and Francis and my mother, Mary adored you and so did John, Helen and Margaret..You were all the greatest of the Greatest Generation! I will miss you and cherish all the times we had together. I love you.

My deepest sympathy to the O'Brien and Spada families. AnnMarie, I have such fond memories of your mother from playing at your house when we both attended the Quincy School. Jim, I remember your mother's pride when as your teacher I shared your success in the 4th grade at the Avery School. My thoughts and prayers are with you both and your family all the way from South Carolina. May the memories from all the wonderful years you have shared with your mom keep you smiling.

Dearest Kay,
It was an honor and privelege to be your Daughter-in-Law. I owe everything I have to you. You were the greatest Mother-in-Law anyone could ever have. You taught me how to be a better mom and a better person. I have never met a more beautiful, gracious, proud and grateful person in my life. You made each and every one of us feel loved and special. Your memory will never fade, and when I think of you my heart will smile. I'll find solace in the many laughs and good times we shared. You were the Strongest but most Gentle Lady, and the Toughest but most Fair Mom I have ever met. You were everything a Mom should be. You left behind a legacy to be proud of, and we're so incredibly proud of you. God Bless You Katie, and God Speed.
