Not sure what to say?

Our deepest condolences to the Desmond family. Sister Joan always had a kind smile, warm eyes, and gracious outlook. May she live on through memories and in the hearts of those who knew and loved her. She was a dear friend of my huband's aunt, Sr. Mary Joan. It was always a pleasure to see her.

Joan was always centered in her spirituality. I had the privilege of working with her at St. Augustine's in South Boston. I now count her a another one of my angels who will look out for me.

Dear Mary,

So sorry to hear about Joan and so happy we saw you both at our fiftieth reunion. Peggy O'Toole Guiney

Eilleen/Kathleen, so sorry to read of your sister's passing.
You all are in my prayers.

Love,
