Pat, Mike and I are so sorry to hear of your mother’s passing. I remember her as a great and funny lady. I remember hearing stories about her at Parent/Teacher conferences at Holy Redeemer and how she would look in each teacher’s room and say “Do you have one of mine?” We will keep your family in our prayers.
