Oh Brigid, you have left a huge hole in many hearts. My best childhood memories were spent in your house, with your family. Not only have you always been there with a kind word and great conversation, but you remembered everything about everyone, and always remembered to ask about a mother, father, child, etc. You made everyone feel special, and that is why we all love you. I will miss you so.

Aunt Bridie you will always hold a very special place in my heart. I will always remember bringing the boys to your house on Halloween over the years and sitting down for a great cup of tea, snacks and great conversation. You will be missed, but we will gain strength in knowing we have another angel to watch over us.

April 17, 2011

Dear Grandma, I miss you oh so much you probably dont even know. I look back at the good old times we had together every night before i go to bed. I remember the times when I would come home from school and you would always make me a grilled cheese sandwich and you sure know how to make a grilled cheese! I also remember watching the Squirrel Jokes episode of SpongeBob and me and you would laugh everytime we would watch it. Almost everything and anything will remind me of you, and it's so hard to know that you're gone. I was really looking forward to you being there on my high school graduation day because i know how badly you wanted to go. I'm going to do so good in life and I want you to be proud of me grandma because i know that I am going to make you proud. I will love you forever and always will you be in my heart. Love your grandson, Dominic.
