Dearest Mom Mom ~ I have so many fond memories of you! Living with you and Pop Pop when I was little is one of the fondest. We had so much fun hanging out and going places. Treasure hunts in your well-stocked basement could entertain me for hours! Summers spent at the shore in Wildwood are forever etched in my mind. Large family gatherings at your house in Oak Lane for Thanksgiving ~ I recall my cousins and I doing Tony Orlando and Dawn skits on the piano bench - entertaining the family ~ sitting at the "kiddie" table and putting black olives on our fingers as adornments ~ there is nothing quite like being surrounded by a large, loving family on those important holidays! We moved away when I was 10 but I never forgot that feeling of love and acceptance that only a family can provide. You were such an anchor of faith and love in our family. Proof of your enduring legacy lives on in all of us. We love you Mom Mom. We miss you Mom Mom. Live in the eternal peace of God!

Dear Marianne, Susan, Danny, Sean, and Colleen. I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your Mother. She was a beautiful woman with her smiling Irish eyes, and I have many fond memories of her from my teenage years. I never hear the song "Danny Boy" that I don't think of her. May your Mother rest in peace, and I know that your memories of her will bring smiles to your sadness. Love, Drew Perry Hasson
