Dear Paul, Theresa and Families:I am so saddened to hear of your mom's passing...I wish that all the times she crossed my mind I had picked up the phone to call... When I remember Roses, I'll always think of her big smile and infrectous laugh...The Langevin family truly loved her...We too lost our only parent, Fred Langevin Sr. in November...My hope is our parents are sitting around a table drinking coffee and sharing stories....Cherish the memories and carry her in your heart always...Yvette Langevin Panasowich

Paul, my deepest sympathies and prayers are with you and your family. I never had the pleasure to meet your mother but she must have been a great lady to raise such a fine son.
