Not sure what to say?

We all miss you everyday Mom. You are were an example of living and loving the way that Our Lord Jesus Christ taught us to live. Your peaceful, kind, loving presence will be missed at the dinner table, and at the family gatherings. I know you are at the Masters table now. I know we will meet again.

My condolences to Eileen's family.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

My mother must have been born with a smile. She had a gentleness about her wherever she went and it seemed that she saw only the good in others. I am sure her deep faith in God and her devotion to Our Lady carried her through life and all of its difficulties and trials of which she had her fair share. Her devotion to her husband (and my dear father), Raymond, knew no bounds. They shared everything together and loved to get out and go dancing; or as my father said, "to shake a leg".

My mother was a gentle, kind beautiful person. She loved her family and will be missed. Her spirit was an inspiration to me and I will miss her dearly. I was so fortunate to have her as my mother. What a gift! Thanks to all for your support during this difficult time.

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.
