She was my closest cousin. we were three days apart.......she was older. in our youth we were inseparable. We were able to talk about a million things as we grew up. My heart ached when Aunt Dolores told me. I never met her family but I never stopped loving her. This New York family will pray for her and her entire family.. Carmen DeCristoforo

I met Mrs. Mullane in 1985, when I became friends with her son Jimmy and his lifetime partner Michael. Jimmy's house was one of the main hangouts for our group of friends. Mrs. Mullane was larger-than-life and her huge love for Jimmy was obvious. She would often join us in the den, sitting on the steps that led to the kitchen and talking and laughing with us. She and I agreed that the fact we were both Virgos meant that we were both pretty smart. I remember my first and only argument with Mrs. Mullane - whether it was Lauren Bacall or Ingrid Bergman who starred in "Casablanca" with Humphrey Bogart. I think we would both agree now that it was probably Barbra Streisand. The house always smelled amazing with her Italian cooking! She was fun to joke with and over the years I was always happy to see her and very glad that she eventually met my partner Keith and our sons, and even babysat Ryan and Jake once when we went out for dinner with Michael and Jimmy. I will miss you, Mrs. Mullane, and I'm glad that you are together again with Mr. Mullane.

I remember presenting a family tree in middle school where pictures and descriptions of each family member were required. Then my classmates went on to ask me how my grandmother could look so good and still be old enough to be my grandmother. So beautiful, even in her final days, I'll always remember the way she never failed to light up the room. Selfishly, I'll miss the fantastic cooking, the magical holidays, and the incredible love and positivity shown to me even when I couldn't provide it for myself. Unselfishly, I know she is in a better place and has found peace from the struggles she often hid from her grandchildren. I will love her forever and think of her always

A Cousin's Memory:
My incredible Cousin Patricia....I called her Patty all my life, and she let me.
Patty was one of those rare mortals that had it all...did it all with Patience, perfection and ease!
She was beautiful, when she entered a room, all eyes were upon her;
She was a model, a cosmetician, an interior designer, a gourmet cook
and she made a lifetime marriage with her beloved Michael that could
only be described as: "A LOVE STORY" together they created beautiful, talented and accomplished Children and Grand-Children!
She had a wide circle of friends....she always made time for....and she really listened!
The world is a sadder place without Patty, but there is no doubt who was waiting to take her hand as their "Love Story" continues in Heaven!
R.I.P. beautiful Angel.....give Michael a hug for me.

Mrs. Mullane always made all of us feel welcomed and loved. I will always remember her. I met her sometime back in the 1980's. I'll also remember her delicious cooking!!! Jimmy is one of my best friends.
I'm so very sorry for your loss honey. Also, Debbie, Linda and of course Michael. I'm so sorry for your loss. You had a wonderful Mother and I pray you all continue to feel her love. She will always be with you. God bless you all. Love you all so much!

Another one of my earth angels stolen by heaven. Good bye my sweet mother. I can't imagine life without you. You are so loved-we are all so lost without you. My only comfort is that you and the love of your life, my wonderful father, are together again-Enjoy! Play! Dance! Sing! Forever in our thoughts.

I can only smile thinking of you and Dad finally together again. He's been waiting a long time to be able to laugh and talk and dance and hold you again!
You'll be forever in my thoughts and heart, until we meet again.

Pat was a wonderful person and my best friend. We have known each other for 48 years. I will always remember our weekly lunches and the fun times we had with our husband's, also our cruises. I wll miss our daily phone calls. She always told me we were sisters from another mother. I will miss her so much.

I met Mrs. Mullane after meeting her son, Jim when I was 17 years old. I remember thinking that she was so beautiful and slightly intimidating. I could not have been further from the truth as she and Mr. Mullane accepted me into the family. She loves her children Jimmy, Debbie and Linda ferociously as well as being so proud of her grandchildren Julia, Michael Brittney and Marc.

I cant imagine the past 35 years of my life without her debating and challenging me and more and most importantly knowing that she loved me and would always be there for me.

I love her and will miss her everyday.

When I was in second grade my mother had a school teachers meeting where the teacher preceded to tell her that I was not bright, lazy and didn't try. In reality it was the exact opposite, my mother proceeded to challenge the teacher, school and school board. Due to her persistence it was then discovered I had a learning disability (called 766 at the time) now known commonly as Dyslexia. She then started reading ALL my reading assignments into a tape recorder where I was able to learn. My mother did this for the next several years.

This is just one example of how my mother fought for me and my sisters to ensure we had a fighting chance in this crazy world.

I will love her forever and miss her everyday.
