Carol, Leann & Bill, I'm so sorry I've only learned about the death of your Mom. Actually went online to check on Holy Spirit's Bulletin and saw a Mass for your Mom. We don't get a newspaper everyday and I never think to look at the obits online everyday either. After missing the notice about your Mom, I'm hoping I get better at doing that. I feel so badly. Please accept my apology for not seeing you all in person. I loved your Mom (as did mine) and should have kept in better touch. She was such a lovely lady. Extending my sympathies to you and your family. God bless you as I know from experience, some days are harder than others. Take care & know you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Love Joyce Jacobs Thomas

So very sorry about the loss of your Mom. She was a lively funny character with whom my Mom (her Evie) had many happy memories of their early days in Millvale. We heard of lots of their escapades and there was always laughter when they were together. I forsee lots of laughter again in heaven with all their friends joining in. May your sorrow be eased when you think of her smiling. My deepest sympathy.
