I will always remember growing up next door on Toole Dr. and watching "Mo" and Joan off the school, off to work, off on dates, and of course sitting under the "Fogarty tree" in the back yard, where all the neighbors and many friends would gather. Who could forget all the times Maureen and my mother would share a bottle of hair color, as we all waited to see how it would turn out...I remember a few surprises from that!! I could never think about one sister without thinking of the other; that in itself is a blessing that the two of you lived.
Bob and I send our heart-felt sympathy to all the family. Joan, take comfort in your many friends and you won't feel alone.Much love from Linda and Bob

Karaan and I very sorry to learn of Maureen's passing. I always remember her as the "sophisticated, grown-up cousin who went to New York City anytime she wanted to." So we thought, anyway. Our best wishes to Bob, the children, grandchildren and Joan.
