Dear McNalis family,
Your mother was a very special lady. Along with your father, they were very well known in the Manor for all the work that they did for the community. My thought when I ready of Kitty's passing was "Now she is at peace and with her beloved Joe."
My sympathy to all of you. Kitty will always be remembered.
I plan to be at the funeral on Wed.
