I was so sorry to hear about Mrs. Donovan. I have SO many fond memories of her. She took me into your family, as mine was falling apart. She took me to church, on vacations and provided the love that I so needed. She was the kindest soul that I've ever met. I'm so sorry John, Peggy, Dan and family. I know that you must be heart broken. RIP sweet lady, I'm sure that you found peace with being able to hold Maureen again. Love, Shelley (Black) Raabe ...aka Goobey

Dear Family,
My name is Joanie (Brickner) Nath. I am the daughter of Bill Brickner. His brother's are Harry and Gilbert. All are deceased. Matt Donovan was my dad's cousin. I've been in OLG for 35 years with my husband and now three grown children and I never knew your mom was in the parish! I would have looked her up and we could have shared memories! Nora Donovan was my confirmation sponsor.

I pass on my condolences to your family. Although I was very young when Matt passed away, my memories of your mom are lovely. My five sisters and I always liked her. She seemed a sweet spirit.
Blessings to all of you!
