There are so many fond memories of your mom. Visiting and playing at your home while growing up, our trip to Ireland, visiting St. Mary of Sorrows and the various schools where our moms taught together come to mind along with getting to visit with her in Florida. Mary "T" was such a gentle, special person! Her warm heart, bright smile and kind words were shared with everyone she met. She made the world a better place and you are all so fortunate that she was yours! Keeping you all in our thoughts and prayers. Love, The Banigan's
