I'll miss walking in the side door and calling out "I'm home mom". Mary always welcomed me like my own mother would. She has three wonderful loving daughters who took good care of her, especially in the last few years. She'll be missed by all!

Ryan,Brandon, & Lindsay:

What a tough couple of weeks, you have had to endure. If not for our faith, in life ever after, we would despair even more. My thoughts are with the three of you, for this loss and the loss of your Papo. Do believe though, that some extra guardian angels now sit on your shoulders. Your Grandma loved the three of you very much.

Love, Aunt Debbie

How very courageous of all of you girls to Let Go and Let God. I know it was a tough decision to make, but knowing Mary, that is the way she would have wanted it. She's in a much better place and I know she is having a great time seeing all of her loved ones and friends.



We love all of you very much.

Paula, Patrice & Scott, Eva & Ray and Ryan, Brandon & Lindsey, My extended sisters and family,



These words are hardest now but I want you to find some comfort as I did 2 weeks ago with your help. Thank you so much for being there with and for us. Your Mom was a great lady, enjoyed life even with its ups and downs. She was a daughter of Christ. She loved you very much as you did her. We all have fond memories of her and I celebrate her life. That helps me at this time. Be sad but strong as I know you will. You and your Mom are very much in our thoughts and prayers. Hail Mary full of Grace, the Lord is with Thee....

Eva, too bad I can't write side ways in here -- You know I would. I will never forget our trip to Miami with your MOM -- what a wonderful time we always had. I always felt a part of your family and you a part of mine. You will always have a place in my book, and I know your MOM had a place in the Book Of Life, and she is having a time right now, she was the life of the party. Love to you and your family, hope to see you soon. Patty and family.

Words can seem so empty and void right now when trying to touch someone's heart that's hurting. I do hope that through God's healing touch you are comforted right now. My prayers are with your family right now as you go through this sad and difficult time. May His angels be with you each step of the way of your healing from your sorrow, comforting you and giving you encouragement. God bless. ~Libby

Mary, you will be missed tremendously. I enjoyed working on church events with you. I will miss our long conversations about New York. You were an asset to St. Francis Cabrini Church - God Bless you!
