I knew, loved, and worked with Andrew's mother, at IHM. I met Nadine's sons a few times. They were such gentlemen and adored her. I enjoyed her stories about the (loving) pranks they would play on her and their friends. I know how proud Nadine was of both of her boys. I also know that you, Andrew, are reunited with your mom and can picture her arms wrapped around you - giving you a huge hug. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
