Bobby, Richie. And Crocker family.
My sincere condolences upon reading of the loss of your mom.
I dare say she was a "mom" to many a youngster on West Street and all around Westford as well. She will be missed by all who had the good fortune to know her both personally or professionally over these many years of her well lived life.

Sincerely,
Hank Connell

I am so sorry to hear about the passing of Mickey. She was a dear friend of my mom, Molly Kelly. I know she was also very close to the rest of my Kelly relatives from Forge Village! My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this very difficult time!

Mickey was an institution! She did so much for Westford and Forge Village. She was a great friend to my Aunts Jean and Pearl and Mom Toot, and my cousin Dale´s Godmother. She told great stories and a lot of history was saved due to her. So sorry for you loss. Rest in Peace Mickey.
