Hi Mom: Thank You for being You! You are and will always be my best friend and the best mother any child could ever want. I will miss you tremendously! You were always a very loving and positive person and you brought up four beautiful and wonderful daughters. You had a quick wit and had a lot of funny connotations but you taught us that if you always treat people like you would like to be treated yourself you would alway have wonderful results. You have family who love you from many different countries. We will miss you so much but will remember the love and happy memories that we experienced with you.

Love you

Winnie, Rest in Peace. I only got to
know you better when you moved to
No. Attleboro. Thanks for the visits,
sorry I didn't get to see you as much
as I should. I never went by Scout Lane that I didn't think of you. You are a great lady and it was a blessing to know you here on earth.
Take care, we will see you one day.

Just seeing Win's face when you came into a room, just made you smile and want to be near her...her Irish bread was mouth watering..the look on her face when you called her "Wiggles"...When she said "It's only cranberry juice" made you smirk..so many memories, please remember the good ones.
Our thoughts are with you,
Love Lou & MJ
