I grew up with the Poyers when we all went to St. Pauls. We lived down the street, and with my sisters, Angie and Chris, we were back and forth a lot between the two homes. I always wonder how all the Poyer "kids" are. We lost our brother Doug. I used to visit Marie a lot and remember all of you so much. Please send my love to everyone.

Aunt Marie's Rosary and Mass were two of the most powerful events we have ever attended. We will keep this experience and the memory of her with us forever.

Our Love to All of You,
