Erin and Rob, offering my sincere condolences and prayers on the death of your mother. I just learned of it in the OLOM bulletin. We surprisingly met outside of Walgreens what seems like just a few months ago, must have been October/November, it was cold and breezy, but we chatted for more than 20 minutes, catching up and recalling shared memories of our days volunteering at Our Lady of Mercy School. May Virginia rest in peace in God´s loving arms.
