Dear Uncle Jack, Jackie,Jimmy,Danny,Michael,Margaret,Patrick,Mary Beth,and "liiitle" Nora,

We are very sorry to hear of the passing of our Aunt Pat. She was a wonderful lady. Every time I hear someone in a South Buffalo accent say "Oh Yea?" , I think of her and how that phrase was put to me and cousin Jackie when we tried some lame excuse for our behavior. Our prayers are with you all.
