I am so sorry for your loss. Great lady . You can tell how great she was by knowing her children very caring and great people to be around. Being a Flaget, Trinity and U of L fan shows how smart she was. Remember all the good times I am sure there are a lot of them to remember. Joe you are the best as well. Dad always appreciated you helping get thru Flaget. Take care!
