Blessings to the Corrente Family - We loved your mom and dad as our own and they both treated us like family - teaching us the importance of saving, spending, and investing wisely- helping us with our first credit purchase as a married couple and then helping Loyd finish getting his degree. Mollie, we will always cherish the dolls you made and the wonderful stories you would write. A day with Mollie was full of smiles and laughter. We love you guys... Loyd and Mary

To this day some of my fondest memories are of the big Christmas get together at Uncle Tom and Aunt Mollies house, and all of the other big family get togethers they were always more than happy to host. I always knew growing up on the Avenue in Ventura that I could always go to the furniture store if I needed anything. From a snack ,which she was always more than happy to make, to just a hug and some love. She was always there.
I love you and will miss you Aunt Mollie.
Your Godson Christopher and Family.

You have our deepest sympathy and condolences. We will miss her a great deal. Her generosity, love, creativity and humor were beyond compare. No one in our large family ever felt left out. Seeing her always felt like coming home. She will be in our thoughts and prayers always as she makes her journey home. With love and affection, Cousin Carol and Michael Mercer. (Lusk, Wyoming)

Aloha David & Chris,
After almost 60 years as friends and having spent so many days running around Pierpont like we owned it I still think of you and your family often. My memories of Tom and Mollie are as vivid today as they've ever been.
Two great people that lived life honorably and to its fullest. Obviously great parents because they raised a great son that I am proud to call my oldest friend.
Sorry we can't be there to help you celebrate Mollie's life but know that you're in our thoughts now and always.
With Love,
Jeff and Linda
