I really wish I could be there with you today, I know how all of you are feeling. What a great lady your mom was to me, she'll be missed. Your dad gets her back with him, somehow I will find Paul, David, and Eddy, and we'll catch up. All my best to the Gillis Family.

Our sincere condolences on the death of your Mother.My parents Mae(Walsh) and Roy Cate were longtime friends of your parents. They went way back.We even lived on the same street for awhile. The last time I saw your Mom was at my Aunt Nancy's 80th birthday party.I know it doesn't matter how old they were the hurt is real. I am sorry we will not be able to make the wake or funeral. We are going through some health issues ourselves.
