Visited with Mae at Thanksgiving, she and Maragaret always filled my heart with joy and postive regard. My mom, Elizabeth Meehan, always spoke so well of Mae. Know she is with me in prayer and spirit.

One of many pleasant recollections I recall with Mary was when she shared her experience as an immigrant from Ireland working for the rich on the MAIN LINE outside of Philly.
She was always a true friend of my mom.
As we pray in the Preface of the Mass, " life is not taken away, but transformed" may I offer my solidarity and prayers to Jack and Rosabell and the rest of the family.I will offer Mass for Mary's intention on Saturday. Padre Dan Meehan from Pittsfield, Ma.
