Not sure what to say?

Dear Brother Bill, Mary & Gerry,
You are in my prayers and mom will be in my masses both here and while on retreat. She will never be forgotten, that's for sure as she was a remarkable woman and a delightful friend. Her hospitality was alway so gracious - even as she sat and watched me wash her windows.
With love and prayers,

Brother Bill,

My thoughts and prayers for you and your family on the death of your Mom. Peace.

Fraternally,

Dave Foley

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Fr Bill, Gerry and Mary and the cousins. I can still hear the infectious laugh of Aunt Patsy! She will be missed. We wish we could be with the Burke clan as you celebrate her amazing life.

Dear Father Bill, Mary and Gerri,
We were very sorry to hear about your Mom. I'm glad she died at home. I can still hear her laughter in my head - she was a fun loving, wonderful woman. You guys are in out thoughts and prayers.

Sending Love and Prayers to the Burke family, especially Father Bill, Gerry and Mary, our cousins...
We loved Aunt Patsy. She was one of our favorites. My friends ask, "Was she your father's sister?" I say, "No, but she was like a sister, and more of a "Burke" than anyone." She will be missed.
Love,

With deepest sympathy to the Burke family, you are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Aunt Patsy aka Auntie Rags aka Aunt Wheezer, You will be missed greatly down here, but you are the last of the Walter and Hazel clan to join them in heaven. You always were the life of any party, it's only fitting you should get up there fashionably late. When you finish hugging Uncle Bill tell mom and dad hello.

Rest in Peace, Aunt Patsy. Love and prayers to Bill, Mary, and Geri, and Hart, Millie and Katie!

My sympathy goes out to Mary, Bill, Gerry and Patsy's grandchildren, who she adored. My prayers and thoughts are with all of you. Be confident that she is at peace. I have many, many wonderful memories of her from my early childhood until now. We always teased each other and enjoyed being together. Patsy was very loving and caring.
Love,
Marty
