Dear CLem , Rita, Elaine, Jane and Carol and Jerry (Mike),

When I received the e-mail from Jane, my heart was sad, for Mary's loss. I am so happy that I had a nice visit with her at the 40th anniversary of Santa Teresa.

There will be a huge hole in the Religious Ed. office where she so faithfully served the children of Santa Teresa. When I served as a Catechist during the years that we lived in San Jose, I will always remember her welcoming smile, and generosity , alway willing to help in any way that she could.

Know that my prayers and thoughts will be with all of the family and with the parishoners of Santa Teresa who will miss her so much.

May God's blessings be with each of you.
