To Micheline's Family: Dear Ones, I can truly sympathize with you and offer my prayers of consolation. I, too, lost my Mother on December 12, 2001. Micheline knew her and I bowled with your Mom for several years. Oddly enough, we are the same age and both graduated from high school in 1951. I found comfort in knowing that my Mother died on the feast day of Our Lady of Guadalupe as did Micheline and the two of them are being cared for by Our Lady.
