Dear Bob, your mother was a wonderful person that I will always remember. You both have a very special place in my heart. She is resting now and in the arms of Fr. Larry and your father. I know I speak for many at Assumption when I say that if there is anything you need, please let us know. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Much love,
