My Dearest Pherribo Family. I saw Cleo (MOM) in the paper today. My heart goes out to all of you. I know how much she loved her family. In my 64 yrs I can say that I loved her so much, I was always her Red-Headed step child. I hope Sherry, Al and dad remembers me from the Energy Council. Mary Martinez, McConaghy. I have her pic right her with my mom and dad. I lost contact of Mom, a few years ago. But she was never out of my mind. All my love and prayers to all of you. Please send me a prayer...

My deepest condolences on the loss of "Miss Cleo." She was a wonderful, amazing woman, and helped so many young people who were starting out their careers in the PA House of Representatives. She is now "singing in the Heavenly Chorus".

Seeing the photo of Cleo brought tears to my eyes. She was such a grace-filled woman with a gentle spirit. Truly an inspiration and a Blessing for me to have known. I'll never forget the day I told her how much I enjoyed her singing at the Cathedral and she simply laughed and responded in her usual humble manner "I don't know why people say that"
God Rest Your Soul Cleo - thank you for always being so kind and leading by example. It was an honor to have worked with you. My thoughts and...

Albert, you and family are in my thoughts & prayers.
Sending condolences to all.

I remember Cleo fondly. What a lovely and gracious lady. I would often see her when I worked for Tom Murphy in the office adjacent to hers in the Irvis Building (South Office in those days). She always had a kind word for everyone and I enjoyed our conversations. My heartfelt condolences to Jen, who I met many years later, and her family. Best wishes, Diane Hain

I LOVE YOU, MOMMY. YOU ARE THE GREATEST WOMAN I HAVE EVER KNOWN OR WILL EVER KNOW. YOU CONTINUE TO LIGHT THE WAY FOR ME, SCOTT AND DAVID.
