Donald our deepest sympathy for you and your family from Dave and Janice Dowling on the loss of your wife Lois.
Though we haven't seen each other for a few years I still have fond memories of sitting at your kitchen table with you and Lois talking about the old neighborhood and what our children were up to. A lot of fond memories.
Unable to attend wake and service do to medical problem of my own.

Mom what can I say you are an angel now. Thank you for raising me to the man I am today. You took a piece of me up there with you. I will never forget our time in Disney and all the fun we had. You are a great mom and I will miss you so much. You broke a lot of hearts the day you left us. Until we meet again mom you will always be in my heart. Love Pat
