Mary Kay and The O'Toole Family,
May you see God's light on the path ahead
When the road you walk is dark.
May you always hear,
Even in your hour of sorrow,
The gentle singing of the lark.
When times are hard may hardness
Never turn your heart to stone,
May you always remember
when the shadows fall—
You do not walk alone.

My sympathy to all your family at this terrible loss. Kathleen was a wonderful, faith-filled woman who was always a joy to be with. I have pictures of your mother, Pat Conway, and Mary Heidkamp at my First Mass at St. gertrude's 8 years ago. How they will all be missed. I have offered mass for your mother, and you all remain in my prayers. God bless you.
