I was young when Margaret Jean was born and have few memories of her, but I remember that you all loved her. My beloved Mother loved her too, and she spoke of both Mary Catherine and Margaret Jean well into her later years. I'm sure Mom and Margaret Jean will find each other in Heaven.
I have wonderful memories of childhood with you. Perhaps we'll meet again.

Pat and Family.
I am so sorry for the loss of your daughter, even though I never met her I do know you and what a beautiful Christian woman that you are and I am sure she is with her Heavenly Father now rejoicing in her new life. I am sure it must be so very hard to have your child go before you. My love and sympathy are with you and pray God will guide you through this sad time.
In Christian Love
