Dear Dore Cousins,
Although I can't be there in person, I keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Aunt Betty was one of the best! It was always a great time if it involved Uncle Johnny, Aunt Betty & Family. So many fond childhood memories involve your family.
Love,
Mary Catherine (Quinn) Price

Dear Cousins, Please know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers. Aunt Betty showed such love and support to all of us. I loved being with her and with your family while we were celebrating holidays and family events. My memories of her will be with me always, especially her joy for life. Your mother was kind and caring to all who were fortunate enough to come into her life. May the memories you hold of her and her love for you be with you now and into the future. Sorry I cannot be with you at this time.
Love, Joan
