Anyone that knew Sissy knows she was the biggest sports fan. She was a diehard Boston Bruins and Boston Red Sox fan. She loved hockey more than anything. So much that she got the Bruins logo tattooed on her arm. Her children were her life. Her loyalty never faltered when it came to her children. She will be missed dearly. Who loves ya baby?
