Aileen Hart Obituary
Aileen "Mickey" (Barry) Hart
Resident of South San Francisco
(1923-2010)
Mickey was born at home on June 1, 1923 in Millbrae, California. She attended Our Lady of Angels grammar school and graduated from Mercy High School in Burlingame in 1941. Soon thereafter, she worked as a keypunch operator for the Matson Navigation Lines where she met her husband, Burton Hart. Mickey's greatest joys were her two children, Sandra and Gregory. They made a home in South San Francisco where Mickey has lived since 1955. After retirement in 1984, Mickey took great pleasure in volunteering her services to the Mercy High School Alumni Association, and St. Veronica Church in South San Francisco. In 2003, Mickey was bestowed with the Alumna of the Year Award from Mercy High School for her years of dedicated service. Mickey loved attending daily mass, visiting with her close circle of friends, and doting over her family by preparing delicious meals and elegantly decorating for every holiday. Mickey embraced her Catholic values which were reflected in her every thought, word and deed. She had a spontaneous sense of humor and fun-loving spirit, which will be warmly remembered by all who knew her.
Mickey is survived by her daughter and son-in-law Sandra Hart and David Lloyd; son and daughter-in-law Greg and Peggy Hart; her adoring grandchildren Sean and Brendan Hart and Noah Lloyd; her sisters Geraldine Seil and Ethel Ellis and many cherished nieces and nephews. Mickey was preceded in death by her husband of 49 years, Burton Hart and beloved grandson Steven Hart.
For the past six months Mickey enjoyed the expert care of the Sutter Health Hospital doctors (Robert Dinh, Linda Pope, Aaron Roland) and Hospice nurse (Aurora Academia); the loving and thoughtful care of her home-health nurses, Rosaleen McDaid, Annette Campbell, Susan Desmond, Theresa Frawley, Josephine Moore and Lita Barboza. Her daily trips to Mass during the past year were very much appreciated and could only have happened through the generosity of her close friends, Peg and John Collins. When it became impossible to travel, daily Communion was brought to her through the dedication of her long-time, faithful friends, Nita Ricotta and Nancy Johnson with Sunday communion caringly ministered by Tod Brett. She was grateful to the St. Veronica community for all their support, care and friendships (and roadtrips!) of many years.
Friends may gather Thursday, September 16, after 6PM and are invited to attend the Vigil/Rosary Service 7PM, and the Funeral Mass Friday, 11:30AM (ALL) at St. Veronica Catholic Church, 434 Alida Way, So.S.F.

I knew Mickey and Bert from Matrson Navigation. Working with her as a key punch operator. Remember many many fun days and laughter with her.
Not seeing her for many years, I was not surprised to see what a wonderful life she had. An outstanding life!

Mickey will always live on in the hearts of those who were blessed to know and love her. So grateful for her sharing her joy, generosity of laughter and hilarious story of Spunky the dog. Will miss her lipstick moments at McD's every am after Mass. Her life was such a gift to everyone who crossed her path.

A beautiful lady with a kind spirit. I am very glad to have known her as someone who was always very kind to me, as well as many, many others, and who was a wonderful friend to my mother RoseMary.

It has been a privilege and an honor knowing Mickey over the past 24 years. She was always warm, friendly, and quick with a smile and a joke. She always possessed a great sense of humor. You knew within moments of meeting her that you would enjoy any time that you would spend together. Mickey had an amazingly open heart, was pleased to offer any help she could when needed, and was most appreciative of those who helped her. She was a loving Mother, Grandmother and friend. We will miss her very much.

God, bless Mickey. I remember that when I was a priest at St. Veronica's, Mickey would be assisting in the sacristy early in the morning and, just before Mass would begin, she'd say with a smile, "See you in church!" It was a friendly ritual. The remembrance of her specially-marked parking place brings a smile to my face, too.
My condolences to her family and to all the friendly parishioners who have to say goodbye to her until we are gathered together again in God's kingdom.
