Dear Nancy, Sheilah and Mimi...Oh how my parents loved your parents...now they are all dancing together in heaven! I asked my brother Greg to be sure to give you a heartfelt embrace and I hope you felt my love all the way from the Bayou State of Louisiana to Virginia. Gosh, weren't we blessed to be friends and have the parents we had! Thoughts and prayers, Barbara Gorcys Deane

Dear Sheila, Mimi and Family...I was saddened to learn of the death of your Mother. You were truly blessed to have had her with you all for so long.
I think of you (girls) so often and always with fond memories.
My sympathy to you all and may God bless and keep you.

As a member of the Ladies of Carmel from OLMC, I would like to offer my sincere condolences to Anastasia's family. Anastasia was a devoted and active member of the Ladies of Carmel. The past few years she would read the LOC events of the year at the Annual Breakfast in June. Even with her illness this past year she read the summary with dignity and grace. Her ever present smile never gave any indication of any discomfort she was experiencing. I loved her and she will be sorely missed.

Our Deepest Condolences to the Cassidy Family,

Anastasia was a fine God fearing woman whose energy and zest for life was beyond her years. She introduced Jeannette and I to the great antique car culture in the Virginia Peninsula region and a wealth of mutual friends. Always cheerful and genuinely happy to see you she was a joy to know. Our world is a sadder place without her. God has called a fine woman home to be her beloved Lou.
