My deepest sympathy goes out to all her family. She was a sweet lady. I worked for her physician and remember her kind and smiling personality. She will be sadly missed.

Dear Jean Marie and John,

Even though I moved to Nevada many years ago with my family (where I have been teaching almost all my adult life, both here and in CT.), I try to keep up with news in the CT Post. I was sorry to see the news of your mother's passing. I have wonderful memories of her, your grandmother, and both of you as I was growing up. I know my mom (who is now deceased) loved Jennie and your mother, both treasured friends and neighbors of whom she always spoke. Perhaps now they are all having some coffee and good conversation together. You are in my thoughts, and I hope the fond memories help ease your loss. MaryLou from Ohio Avenue

To the Family:

I am very sorry for the loss of such a wonderful woman. I have such fond memories of her from the years that I was a parishoner at Holy Rosary. I remember her as a kind lady with a warm and welcoming smile for everyone. Mary was full of fun and laughter and she shared this with everyone. Godspeed, Mary.
