Dear Patsy Mike & Jim I was very sorry to hear about your mother-what a great lady-your mom was born the same year as my dad, back in County Kerry and they came here at about the same time, Your dad, Mike and your mom were the closest of friends with my parents for so many years-all the way back to the Irish dances they went to when they were single, I'm sure they are all dancing together again in heaven. Although I'm sure she doesn't need it I'll have a mass said for her here in Florida.
