Maureen was a valued friend and lifeline as I went through my "cancer" issue. She was so concerned and caring about me when I knew she was going though so much herself. I will miss her friendship as I know many other NISTers will too.
May she rest with the angels.

I am very saddened to hear of Maureen's death. I have memories of her growing up in Westchester, of Round Robin, and Girl Scouts, car pools, and school shoes. Maureen was always kind and thoughtful. I remember well when she sat next to me in second grade and "helped me remember my "numbers". Maureen was loved and admired by many.

I was saddened to hear of Maureen's death. She was a very special childhood friend of mine. So many of my elementary school year memories include her. Our families were friends back in Westchester Illinois and we all send our condolences to Maureen's family.

Since about 1991, Maureen has been valuable to our 3rd party industry by providing us with her wisdom and direction (which will sorely be missed).
Always a gracious and wonderful person we too grieve with her family.
