Dear Dick and family,
I am so very sorry for your loss. I haven't lived in Rhode Island for the last 41 years, but as I look at your mom's picture and read the reflections of those who knew her, I see she radiates a joy in living, loving and serving. What a beautiful legacy! I wish you comfort and peace in your memories. She lives on in you. God bless you all. You are in my prayers and thoughts.

Into the Tierney family, I worked with Mrs. Tierney many years ago at the Pawtucket Library. She was an amazing lady. It was a pleasure to have known her.

To Terry and family,

We are saddened to learn of your Mom’s passing. A few years ago we were privileged to meet her in her home with you and your brothers. It was such a treat to experience her joy and zest for life, as well as to be able to share many of her wonderful experiences.

To the Tierney family,
What a wonderful and dear woman! Your mother extended kindness and good will to all.
Her chocolate chip cookie recipe is made quite often in our household as well as her Irish Soda Bread in March.
May your memories comfort you always.
With sincere sympathy,
Thea and Mel Mancini

With pleasure and joy can I say this woman raised the most wonderful family. I moved a few short months ago to the neighborhood where Catherine had lived until recent. Every week the boys would take pictures of how my house looked to show their mother-telling me she had great joy in seeing my progress. I´m so thankful for the stories and the memories these good sons now share. They serve her proud. With love and respect many blessings sweet Catherine.
