Frankie, we became friends from day one when we met. Your Mom Abbey & my Mom Patsy were very good friends & they even worked together. We went to school together & graduated in the same class, 1973 was a long time ago. One of our favorite things to do together was meeting up to take our kids (Tracy & Gary) on long walks in their strollers, us stopping to share lunch together & just shoot the breeze. I remember your laugh the most & you were always smiling. You were a great friend & I thank God I was blessed to have you in my life. Can't ever forget Gary's Mach IV I think it was. Green? Not sure. It was nice to watch Tracy, Gary & Damian play together. My sympathy to husband, children, grandchildren, siblings & all family & friends who love you.
Forever friends,

I love you mom. I will miss you & hold you in my heart forever. You were a great grandma to my children (Ian & Sam), you raised a wonderful son, I am proud to call my husband,..(Gary).
We shared private strength talks with each other offering support to one another, Ty. You will always be a hero of mine. You made me laugh. You had only one fault... "Your love for John Wayne".
Love You Mom.
