Mary Louise KENNEDY

Ms. Kennedy was truly a wise, gracious and loving woman. Her late son Bruce and I were classmates from grade school through high school. Through that period Bruce was like a brother and Ms. Kennedy a second mom. I spoke last with Ms. Kennedy when Bruce had passed. Bruce and I had kept in touch over the years. Ms. Kennedy was so happy that I had called her, and we spoke for quite a while. She will always be thought of as my second mom. May you rest in peace.

Mrs. Kennedy, as we always called her, became a close family friend when she needed someone to care for Bruce after school. Bruce was in my brother´s class at St. Pius X, and his friend. Through our neighbor, a nurse who worked with Mrs. Kennedy, we became Bruce´s second family. Mrs. Kennedy was my confirmation sponsor, and she and Bruce were always included at family parties. I am so very sorry to learn of her passing. She was a very special person.
