Our family will always remember the wonderful person you are. We were so fortunate to be in your company at so many gatherings... and not just for your delicious rice pudding and pound cake! Your genuine warmth and smiles lit up every occasion.

You will be missed and remembered with love by so many.

Mom-mom,
There is so many things I wanted to tell you, and share with you. At times I want to be selfish and want you back here with us. However, there is no other feeling than knowing you and Pop-pop can be together again, and watch down on us. I never met such an amazing woman. From being a wonderful Mother, to being an extraordinary Mom-mom. You were not just my mom-mom though, you truly were like another parent to Shane and I. You dedicated so much time to us, and I just want you to know how grateful I am to have had you. You were the one that taught me how to make my bed, to clean, to sew, and many other things. Everyone knew when you were at my house Friday afternoons because I went out with the most ironed clothes on Friday nights! I'll never forget the little things about you, like the way you smelled, or how you would sit at my kitchen table and paint your nails then read a magazine or a book laying around, or how you would watch cartoons with us, or how you would scratch my back when I was little, or how you always let me look and play with your jewelry and make-up, or the smell of your cooking, and the taste of your egg McMuffins and Sauce! You were always trying to feed us! If you were not cooking on the holidays, no one wanted to eat! Its funny how the little things you said like "I'm gonna boot ya one!", or " Get outta here", or "So long" stick in my head and now I use them. There are so many things that you showed me, that I willy carry on the rest of my life, and so many traditions I want to pass along like you did. You are the one the taught me the woman I want to be today. I use to remember the way to your house from mine, so when I wanted to run away I knew how to get to your house! You were a huge part of me and Shane's lives, I could not thank you enough. Mom-mom, you have amazing sons, daughter-in-laws, grand- kids,and great grand-kids who love you so incredibly much. Tell Pop-pop we love and miss him too xoxo
I Love You So Much Mom-mom, thank you for being an amazing role model.

Mark & Marita, there's no good time to lose a loved one but the holidays are especially hard. May all the memories of past holidays together get you through this tough time. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers.

I will always miss Aunt Rose! I loved her hugs, her wonderful smiles and her sparkling eyes. One of my favorite memories is from when I was very young, and over her house, and she was wearing a crisp white apron and incredible aromas coming from the kitchen! I am very grateful and blessed to have her in my life, and as my Godmother. Linda M. Sullivan
