My condolences to the family of

Mrs. Kate Haus Maddock. Mrs. Haus (Kate) and my Mother, Kate Rooney, along with Tim O'Connor, Sr. graduated from BHS, class of '26. I have fond memories of them preparing for the Alumni Parade and laughing as they got closer to the beginning of the parade. They remained friends along with my Dad, Paul Rooney, and Mrs. Agnes

O'Connor, all their lives. They shared many a laugh in our home when I was growing up. Mrs. Maddock was a lovely, caring woman, who always had a smile and a cheerful hello.

Fondly,

Eileen (Rooney) Lent
