Gwennie always had a smile and a nice thing to say about Sarah, Joseph & Emily. She treated my children like they were her own grandchildren whenever we visited. We will all miss her. Love & sympathy to David, Michael, Jackie and their families.

I would like to add my prayers and condolences to Gwen's family. Although I had only met Gwen once, I have heard many memories of Gwen, as Vic's "little sister". Recently, Vic showed me a picture of he and Gwen at her Senior Prom. Gwen has recently sent me many very sweet e-mails, always uplifting, and prayerful. Rest In Peace, Gwen.

I've lost my little sister. We grew up together @ 226 Fairmount Avenue , Hyde Park; shared the mumps and Nana & Grampie. Her mom was like a second mom to me. Though our lives took separate paths we were always close in spirit. God bless and comfort all who loved her.
