David, All five Boylan brothers and sisters were very saddened by the notice of your mom's passing. I have very fond memories of both your mom and dad in Ann Arbor and know how much they meant to "Jug" and Agnes. Well, they are all together again now.... Thinking of you and your family.

Our family is doing well, despite the void left by my Mother’s passing. In her final days she found considerable strength in her fond memories of her family and friends and her belief in Jesus Christ.



She made her mark, touched the lives of many and left this world a better place.
