Dear Billie, Patty and Jimmy. I was deeply saddened to learn of your mother's passing yesterday in an email from Cousin Donna McGrath. Your mother was a very loving, caring and special cousin to me. I was greatly saddened when I learned of her illness; and now, her passing. While her passing is a great loss to all of you and to us cousins, she is at peace and no longer suffering. Please find comfort in knowing that she and all of you are in our thoughts and prayers. She was a wonderful, loving, caring mother to you kids and a loving, caring, devoted wife to your father.

We pray her Soul will rest in peace and we hope all of you will cherish the joys of life with her and not dwell on your loss. She is with Our Creator now; we will all join her one day. My deepest sympathy in your loss. Semper Fi, Billie. God Bless All. Cousin Eddie.

Bill and family,
We are very sorry to hear about the loss of your mother and grandmother. Cia was one of my (our) favorite cousins. As I was growing up, she always had a kind word, and showed interest in what I was doing. We still have a lamp that she gave us for Nancy's bridal shower.
We know it's very hard to lose someone. But, her earthly problems are over now. Yet, she hasn't gone completely. She still lives within you and the rest of your family. And she still lives in our memories from years past.
The Lord be with you...
