We are so sorry about the loss of your mom. She was a great lady. Most of my childhood was spent around Midge whether it was playing on Hancock St or running in Bob's after school from St Francis and having Midge make a strawberry rickie, cause she made the best!! She would always greet you with a smile and ask how your day was, because she cared. I will always remember her!!
May you all find comfort during this sad time. Our deepest condolances to you all.
