Dear Bob, Linda, Rick, Willie, Mariel & JP,
I'm so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. She was a lovely lady and so kind to me when I started dating Tom. It could have been very awkward but she graciously welcomed me into your family as a step-mom to Anne, Joe & Grace. She even bought me a small gift on Christmas of monogrammed stationary which I love. I always think of her when I use it. It's good to be able to think of her finally at peace with Louie & Donna. My thoughts are with you and all the grandchildren today.
Fondly,
Nancy Considine-Clark

To The Pastors:

Saddened to read the obit for your mom in
today's Trib. Lucille and Lou were wonderful partners in the holy work of making a family. Happy memories of praying with them, and you (and your
extraordinary sister Donna) in the
Colonial Room at OLPH. Blessings!
