I am so saddened reading this. She was my godmother and my mother´s best friend from Dominican Commercial. We had been in touch these past few years since my mom Mary passed. I have been trying to reach her recently. She was a beautiful person and I have many memories of her and my mom that they told me about.
Bob was my godfather, she loved him so. I´m sure she is at peace now with him.
I will always remember her. xo
