RIP

Still by your side Sean in spirit & prayer !!! May God bless !!!

I remember Mary Ellen as a funny, sweet friend. So generous, as was her family who welcomed me to their home when activities at St. Bernard would be later running. She was a spunky cheerleader with a winning smile. I know she is watching over her beautiful family. Fran Sainsbury Bonardi

I am very sorry that Mary Ellen has passed away, and on behalf of myself and all her USJ classmates, I extend my heartfelt sympathy to all of you, her family. I remember her as a lovely, vivacious, and very kind member of our Class of 1969 ~ a true Star! May she now rest in eternal peace, and may many treasured memories comfort you in the time ahead. With sadness, Nancy Leber Jordan, Class Agent

Sean and family, I was sorry to hear of Mary Ellen´s passing. You are in my prayers.

As Mary Ellen's twin brother, I had a unique and special relationship. She was protective and nurturing through my polio years at St. Mary's and St. Bernard's H.S.

Sean and family, So very sorry to hear about Mary. We too live in palm city and attend the same church. Hugs and prayers for all your family.
