I used to live in Brookline, the Conveys & I used to meet for breakfast or just for coffee at Martin Coffee Shop during the year of 60-70ish. They were always proud of their sons. I love Jeannette's cooking for dinner or a cake. She & Michael were a lovely couple that always walked around Brookline Village to shop for food, said hello to everyone. I was very glad to visit her at New England Home for the Deaf before I moved down to Florida. God rest her soul and to be with Michael in heaven. My deepest sympathy goes to Paul & Walter(deceased)'s family.
