Somehow I missed this guestbook when Maureen passed. Too much happening at time is my guess why. I have an observation about the funeral which I have not read or heard. The sister I knew when I moved to Florida in 1979 was on the shy side and not inclined to be a leader or organizer. I remember mom saying Maureen had become a spark plug in the PTA and a leader. Apparently she left a real mark on her parish. The funeral mass was packed and the funeral procession had over forty cars in it. I was amazed that my shy sister had blossomed to receive that large a following. Good show,Maureen. I had no idea you had such an impact in the community. So here is a belated cheer from your brother! We miss you. The flowers you planted years ago are still flourishing in the planter in front of the house. Oh,yes! Your grandchildren are flourishing also. RIP we love you. Ron

Miss Maureen so much. We shared many wonderful beach vacations together. As others have mentioned she was a gardening expert. Now that I actually have a garden, I think often that I wish I could call and ask a gardening question. Heck, I think often I just wish I could call Maureen. My love to the Bode family.

Maureen, we miss you each day and have your photos in several places in our home. I especially miss our chats. We could tell each other anything. We loved to work in the garden together and even folding clothes was not a chore with you. May God keep you in the palm of His hand.

My deepest sympathy to Maureen's family. Remembering fun times on Meyerhill Drive and how much I used to LOVE babysitting Katie and Melinda with Christy.

Our family sends deepest sympathy to the Bode family and Rohe cousins. Maureen was admired for her "mothering, grand mothering, care for others and her great courage in facing her cancer.

I will miss you, Maureen, for your smiles and the joy you brought to me.

My condolences to Ron, Dan, Christine and the entire Rohe family. Maureen was a wonderful person who continued to fight like a champion throughout her illness. She was sweet, funny and loving, and most of all - humble. I had the privilege of living on two streets with her - Shaffer Ave. and Meyerhill Dr. We shared many childhood experiences together including walking to St. Catharine's and driving to Mercy. We just reminisced at our 50th reunion how our mothers, Mercedes and Ginny, were such great friends. Maureen will now join them and all the other angels in heaven. We will continue to keep your family in our daily prayers.
Love from Boston,
Cathy Collins Johnson
