Great Lady for sure. Maureen lived across the street from my wife Cheryl in Little Compton when they were kids. Maureen married Joe and Cheryl married me. Quite the story. She is with GOD now and all who love her will see her again.

My mother was the most beautiful person inside and out that I have ever met. She taught me the most important lessons I have ever learned. She was a giver in every sense of the word. She fought for what was right no matter how hard the battle was. She understood love, gratitude, and compassion in a way that most human beings never will. She is with me now and she is comforting and guiding me with her presence, every day. She was an angel on earth in every sense of the word and I will work every day of my life to make her proud and use the lessons she taught me to better myself and those that I love in every way that I can. I was truly blessed to have her as a mother, and though I pine in devastation from her loss, I will be forever inspired by her soul.
