Patti & John,
I am truely sorry to hear of your loss. So many memories of growing up on Westpark Lane, parties in the basement, driving to Florida with a mattress in the backseat, etc...
Your mom was a wonderful woman. Both of your parents will always have a special place in my heart.

Patti and John,
Well, I knew your mom longer than I knew my own, 45 years. I was always happy to see her except when she came home at 11:00 and we were in the basement and I will just leave it at that. She never tried to be my friend, she was Mrs. Mautz, Patti's mom. The last time I saw her was last year when Pat had just come home from the hospital. There she was sitting in Pat's living room, a little frail with John but still worrying if Pat was ok. She never stopped being a mom. Ryan and Jac where however the light that kept her burning. I know you will all miss her and so will the rest of us. She touched us all with her laugh and those eyes!
Love,
Betty

Growing up on Westpark Lane was wonderful - and made even more special for us neighborhood kids because of Mrs. Mautz. I called her "Doll" - I don't remember why I started calling her that but the name stuck. "Doll" was a wonderful friend to my parents and especially to my Mom - but her friendship with Tom and Helen Murphy went far beyond that, she loved each of their children as another one of her own. She was always interested in what we were doing - how we were doing and if we were taking care of ourselves (and our parents). Always laughing, always with that wonderful smile and those winking eyes. I miss you Doll, God Bless!

Patti & John: I am so sorry for your lost. Although I have been gone for a year from the Residence, I often thought of your Mom, I loved her dearly. I really miss her but happy she can be with your Dad and enjoy her cigarettes without anyone bothering her. She is one person who will really be missed. Pat (Receptionist at the Residence)
