Auntie grew up as a fan of the Boston Braves. She often spoke of her fond memories playing catcher as a child in sandlot baseball games. When the Braves left for Milwaukee, she switched her allegiance to the Sox, and disapproved of any defections to the Yankees or the Mutts.

Dear Auntie Fran, Steven, Chrissie, Jackie, Timmy, and Michelle. I am so sorry to hear of Auntie's passing. I remember being with Timmy while he was recovering from his coma. Auntie and many of you were around Timmy's hospital bed. I witnessed such a special moment which to me, represents Auntie. As soon as he laid eyes on Auntie, he sat up immediately, looked her right into her eyes, and beamed his first and biggest smile I had seen. She is now and forever will be smiling upon all of you.
With Love, cousin Colleen

I want to say thank you to everyone who makes a entry here in Aunties Guest Book.
Auntie will always be in our hearts as she has given us the greatest gifts, those of unconditional love and faith. Auntie through it all remained positive and never complained which is not at all uncommon, Auntie only saw the positive and good in every thing and everyone.
I want to also say thank you to my sister Chrissy for always being there for Auntie, your love and commitment to her goes beyond words, and I hope that you know how much she loved you, and how much I love you.
Be at Peace Auntie, I love you, you were my favorite.
