Christine,
I'm so sorry I didn't know you at the rosary. It would have been so good to see you. We used to have so much fun. Again I am so sorry about your mom and dad both. They were special friends to mom and dad too.

My baby sister Teresa just saw your mom's obit today and notified me. I am the oldest of the Higgins girls and have so many fond memories of your parents; I even have two beautiful pieces of art from your mom when I married in 1976! We used to come out to your house and play until late. I can see your back yard now and can mentally see walking into the house. My heart and prayers go to all of you as I know from losing my dad 4 years ago this June, and mom 10 years earlier that you will miss them. I speak to them still all the time.
