Dearest Mary Jane, in my heart I knew you had left us when I was unable to reach you, You were admired by your work ethic and struggles over the years. You were a special friend enjoying jigsaw puzzles together, cooking, your knowledge of soup making, and weekends we shared together. My best memory of you is taking you to the Niantic Christmas Parade, you so loved it.We, Fran, myself and you, had many a joyous evening. So long ago now as we are separated. I will always love and miss you, Roberta
