As my babysitter, I have grand memories of Maryvonne! I remember her sitting at our kitchen table with my mother sipping coffee and talking; she allowing all four of us kids to spend the night with her; her "doctoring up" my knee after I fell and scraped it; driving us around in her ol' blue Nova. She will ALWAYS be in my heart.

Speaking on behalf of the entire Kennedy family, I can say without a doubt that Maryvonne held a most precious place in all of our hearts! Maryvonne came into our lives more than 50 years ago, although we haven't seen her in quite some time, she was never forgotten. We truly loved that woman! It was a sad day for all of us to have heard about her death. Prayers for her family.
