We're sorry that we couldn't make it to the service to share in the memories of huge bowls of chowda, fighting over mashed potatoes, Chips Ahoy in the cereal boxes...

We will be sharing stories of Nana and Papa with Christian and Gracie while we are watching the Sox.

Even though we're in Florida and no longer next door, she was never out of our memories.

Love,
Steve, Amanda, Christian and Mary Grace
