Not sure what to say?

My parents, Gladys and Frank Nesbitt were great friends with Lil and Tom Tyrell. We lived in the same building on Bainbridge Ave. Bronx, NY around the corner of St. Brendan's Church and School. We had a long relationship through the years working with Eileen in the Telephone Company in the Bronx as well as in White Plains, NY. We did go on trips overseas, sponsored by Sacred Heart Church, Hartsdale, NY. So many good memories!
Nancy and Tommy you were blessed to have such a wonderful...

Tommy - please know how often I've thought of you this week! You and your family will especially be in my thoughts and prayers tomorrow! Sending love your way!

An inspiring woman! She will be deeply missed

Tommy, you are in our thoughts so much.
I am glad that you were there with your mom and got to see her meet her peace.
She sounded like an incredible lady and what you wrote about her on facebook was so very special.
Any mother would be so proud that her son felt the way you do and the way you expressed it.
Our sympathy to all the family as well and please give Nancy a hug. Love, Nellie and Jerry
