“My son who was also a Madonna graduate asked if she was one of the sisters who passed recently when I told him of the news article honoring them. He had such fond memories of her. She took the time to assist him with proof reading his work. She was a true joy to be around. She will always be appreciated and remembered in our hearts.”
