My friend Maureen was a very special person who deeply loved her family and her friends. I will always miss her as we played Bingo together. Her favorite number was I17. The mystery trips that we went on were fantastic and all of those scrumcious meals we enjoyed together will always be unforgetable. Maureen worried about all of her family and always wanted the best for them. I am so sorry for your great loss.
