I was very sorry to hear of your loss. She was a very special lady. My grandfather George was her sister. She was a very nice woman and I am saddened to see her go.

To Maryann & Joann,

Will always remember our days from coming home from the beach when we were younger, and your Mom would have dinner ready for us each time. She was a wonderful woman who had lots of patients & always kept busy!! Sorry to both of you & your families for your loss. I'm sure you will miss her.

Maryanne, Joanne, and family,
My deepest sympathies are with you at this difficult time. Your mother was a wonderful woman full of love and as kind as anyone I have ever met. Even though she wasn't always feeling her best, she never complained and always was so pleasant towards everyone. I will miss her dearly. She never hesitated to get my attention when I walked by, so that she could talk to me and ask how I was, or to comment on my hair and ask me if I had time to sit and talk with her. She was a lovely woman with a kind soul. Take comfort in the fact that you now have the best angel in heaven, putting in a few good words, for us all.
