To all my Triplett cousins and Mary's family I send my fondest regards and my sadness for the loss of your mother, Mary.
I can remember your Mom from the early 50's when she used to come and stay with us on Boylston St. with Donna and Linda. Your Dad would be away on ship or something and she would visit for long periods of time. I remember her energy! She never seemed to sit still; always cleaning house and talking! She had a wonderful laugh and great sense of humor. I think growing up in Roxbury when they did gave our parents a real sense of family and community. My mother loved Mary "Mac", and a big chunk of our collective past is gone now.
I'm so sad for your loss. Love, Mickey (Jordan)

I last saw Mary Rose Triplett on the day that her and her family were leaving Massachusetts for California. Although we were all pretty young back then, I remember her and Les and the kids pretty well. You could never forget Mary, in particular, because Mom (Agnes) talked about her all the time. She would always be so happy after talking with Mary on the phone. I know they really missed each other over the years. Now they are together and I can picture the smiles on both of their faces. God Bless You both and I'll see you when I get there.

Sharing memories. My memories of our Cousin Mary go back 45 years and then some. Mary was truly an energetic and loving person. She didn't have a mean bone in her body! I am glad I got the chance to tell her all this before she died. I can just see her and my Mother making up for lost time and watching over all of us. They truly loved each other.
Always, Suzanne (Jordan) Powers

I've lived away from the family for 34 years and my visits have been few and far between but I called my Mom every Sunday morning before she would go shopping with "Little Cathy". She was the person who passed along my east coast news to the siblings and gave me all their west coast news. I've passed that job on to Linda now. She will now receive my call every Sunday. Pass the word, Linda, just like mom did, I love you all!

MOM WAS THE FIRST PERSON I CALLED WHEN I GOT UP AND THE LAST PERSON I CALLED BEFORE I WENT TO BED. I REALLY MISS THAT, AS I HAVE TO CATCH MYSELF WHEN I REACH FOR THE PHONE. IT'S BEEN VERY HARD THE LAST COUPLE OF MONTHS. IF IT WASN'T FOR MY FAMILY I NEVER WOULD HAVE GOTTEN THRU IT. I LOVE YOU ALL AND GOD BLESS YOU ALL.

Dear Family ~ Although I don't see all of you as often as most families do, our time together (especially recently) has been so valuable to me. Now that Nana is no longer physically with us, my learning about who she was in her life will come from getting to know all of you better. Not only am I sad about the loss of my grandmother, but I am sad for not knowing her the way I could have. In these past few months I have been able to put a face to the names for all the stories I have heard. Usually when you meet new people, there is an awkwardness, however everyone has been so wonderful. Unfortunately it takes the loss of a loved one to bring people closer together. I'm sure that while Nana was alive, she would have enjoyed having her out-of-state family to have visited more often. Now that she is watching over us, let's help make her wishes come true!
I love all of you!

To My Family,
It had been almost 20 years since I last saw my grandmother. It took her getting sick for me to finally come and visit. I am glad I did though because my daughter got a chance to know and love her, and we'll always have those last few days of photos and memories. If I could turn back time and spend more of it with her, I would. But I can't and I try not to be sad about it. I can only go forward and remember her fondly, as I have been quite often lately. That is how she will live on with me. And I will miss her very much. And to the rest of my family who is so far away, please know that I think of you often and love you all, though we may not see each other enough. Take care of each other and let's not be strangers anymore.
Love,
Danielle

Dear Family,
I can not express enough how much I wish I could be there to celebrate "Mom's" life with you and to support all of you, especially my dear friend, Kelly. You have all been family to me over there years. Remembering "Mom" and my Mom, Ruby, at the Bobby Sox softball games, sitting on the bench with us, wearing her yellow and purple All Star jacket with pride as her girls played and won; all the family BBQ's at the house in SLz with a big turkey on the BBQ and all the fans going in the house because they didn't put air conditioning in the houses in SLz back then. :) And the last of the innumerable fond memories was seeing her in the pew on the left side of the Church as I FINALLY walked down the aisle to get married to my wonderful husband, John. Though I am not with all of you physically, know that I am with you in spirit and prayer and will offer Masses and Communions for Mom for her continued celebration with Jesus in Heaven.
Jesus I Trust in YOU!
Prayerfully Always,
Lynn, John, Sarah and Gianna Pepe
