Not sure what to say?

What a great person and friend to us. Will never forget the happy times we enjoyed with her. So sorry for all who knew and loved her. Tony and Sandra

Andy and the daughters, we know how difficult the end of having an important person in a family can become. We extend our deepest condolences and sympathy to all of you. We must all experience the loss of someone who is so much the soul of a family. And each of us will experience the end of our own existence. Heather’s husband, Andy and children know that Heather spent her life well, serving others and being first a mother and wife. Our sincere condolences and prayer that all that...

Heather was a nice lady. I met her at the COA in Bedford where we played the ukulele together. We had fun on Tuesday and we kept in touch when she was in her treatments. I was very sad to learn she passed.
This week all the songs we chose were Heather's favorite and class is in her honor. Rest in peace my friend, you are missed.

Heather was such a pleasure to know. Always upbeat and smiling. We had many happy evenings at St Michaels Women’s Club over the years. She contributed to the events in many ways over the years but she especially loved working with Sally Flores collecting Swearshirts and sweatpants and white socks for Pine Street Inn and baby items for Project Rachel- Heartbeat. We will miss her cheerful presence. God Bless all of you.

Heather became a friend of mine years ago when I met her at exercise class at the Bedford Council on Aging. She was the youngest member of our exercise class. Everyone adored her. I shall remember her lovingly as long as I live. She was an inspiration of how to live a meaningful life and share with all.

Thank you for many happy memories Heather! Your many personal and professional activities and accomplishments, raising a large, successful and loving family, and being Andy's rock for 50 years are amazing testaments of a life well lived. The always enjoyable times we got together over the years for cookouts, Super Bowl parties, hiking-trip preps, or just plain old visits, you were always gracious, enthusiastic, engaging, humorous, and, of course, smiling! We always anticipated and...

Heather, Your light shines on in everyone you loved, and in everyone who loved you. Shine on my friend.
