Dear David, Kathy, and John: I am sorry for your loss. I met your mother a few times and she was so charming. I had no idea of her many achievements. Her proudest accomplishment was her wonderful family.

Her light still shines in everyone who knew her. A well lived life was hers and a mighty oak has fallen.
I especially loved the story of when she was learning to drive a car and had an encounter with Albert Einstein who was walking in the middle of the road engaged in his thoughts. She taught him common sense.
She also told Dusty Baker to lose the toothpick. Not a good look, she said.
Most of all, her kindness and Irish humor kindled a light in all of us.
