Josette and family, I am so sorry to hear of your mom's passing. She was such a gracious and kind woman with an ever-ready smile. It's so obvious that her legacy lives on in you.
My prayers and thoughts are with you at this sad time.

Thank you Mary, for taking care of my baby girl for me all those years ago! You truly were everyone's mom, with enough practical love to go around!! Blessings to you Rosemary and your family as you lay mom to rest and know that you provided the best to her during her final journey.

Hold her tightly in your hearts over the next few weeks as you have this past few weeks. Her love and stories will go on with you all. I just heard a story about how much fun it was as a child (from a childhood friend of Liz's) to come over to your house. Your Mom would have fun and creative things for you all to do while visiting. Did she let you play with her button box? She was...a lovely woman with a lovely smile.

Mary was such a gracious person who will be missed. I know her daughter Rosemary, well, and over the years I've come to realize that Rosemary's curiosity and interest in so many things around her has come through Mary.
