Resto nella pace, Mary. You were a vital part of St. Mary's parish and Nutley for many years. You served as an inspiration to all those with whom you came in contact. We will remember your infectious smile and caring manner. We are told that there are many mansions in Heaven. Your place in that celestial order will surely be special. Meanwhile, you will be missed by those who knew you here on earth.

Dear Mary, Marty, Owen, Ellen and Noreen,
As you know, losing a parent is by far one of the hardest things to feel. I know this from my own experience losing my precious father.
It will be 5 years since the passing of my Dad. I asked your Mom to say hello to him in Heaven.
I still, in my own way, speak to him. I know that he is watching over our family, as your Mom is doing now.
Please know that the Martins loved your Mom, especially, my Mother - she lost a good friend.
Please stay in touch and hope to see you at Mike's for the next party!
Love to all of you at this difficult time.
Love your old Nutley Neighbor,
Jane Martin-Cusmano and the Whole Martin Clan

Dear Mary, Marty, Ellen, Owen and Noreen,
I hope each of you will take comfort in the knowledge that many others share the same sense of grief and loss you feel of your mother’s passing. She was in many ways a second mother to each of us Cozines, McNultys, Martins, Dotolis, Sherrys and a multitude of other families in our neighborhood and community. Thank you for sharing her with us all; our prayers are with you.
As I have reminisced over the last few days about your mother and what she meant to me, I came to realize just how much a large part she played in my own childhood and growth to adulthood. Her stoic bravery and courage as a widowed, single mother, her tremendous sense of duty and honor, her terrific sense of humor, and most of all, her incredible kindness and love, have served as an example I have endeavored to follow with my own children as they have grown. The lessons she taught each of us we will carry us through any adversity we shall face in our lives. Today, the love I have for your mother and her gifts, is surpassed only by that I which feel for my own mother, wife and children.
We have all suffered a great loss this week, but we can take comfort in the knowledge that she has been reunited with your father in heaven, and that she has received the promised reward of eternal life with the Lord that she earned so many, many times in her lifetime. I will remember her always, to the end of my days.

Mom,
I will miss you immensely. You were the best mother anyone could ever hope for. I love you with my whole hear and soul. Heaven is a happier place.
All my love,
Your Son,
Owen.

I am so very sorry to hear about your mother. I always enjoyed spending time with her in San Francisco when she came to visit Owen. I know how very difficult this is and hope that are all okay.
