Dear Alan & MaryBeth,
Our hearts and prayers are with you. We will always have fond memories of your Mom and Dad...they were always so much fun at the parish picnics and family gatherings...your Mom's great laugh and your Dad's "Yes, Mother," always said with a twinkle in his eye.
We know they're all up there in Heaven with the rest of the gang from Bridgeport/St. George's. God bless you.

May God keep you forever in his hands. I didn't know Eugenia but thought since we have the same name we mite be related. I would like to hear from someone in the family.

Dear Mary Beth,
I am very saddened to hear of your mother's passing. I always enjoyed visiting with you both at Gapshis family gatherings. May your heart be filled with all the good memories. God Bless.

We are so thankful that we were able to visit with you last month.
We can't help but smile each time we think of Auntie Jean telling Kole, in her best stern voice, " Don't pull that!" as he reached for her toe.
You're in our thoughts & Prayers!
