I am so sorry to hear of Maureen's passing. I was in the hospital at the time and just now am catching up on reading the paper. I worked with Maureen at Birchwood Elementary. She was a great person that I truly enjoyed working with. I was always sorry we lost touch. My thoughts are with you.

So sorry to hear of Maureen's passing. My condolences to Cliff and Michael. Maureen was a childhood friend of mine that I kept in touch with even though I moved out of the city right after college. We lived in the same neighborhood and had so many fun adventures together. Our mothers were good friends as well so I was very connected to this family. Maureen was a truly caring, altruistic person who will always remain in my heart♥
