Your Mom,Dad and I grew up together in Little Flower Parish.Your, (Great Aunt,Eileen Ryan,was my Dad's secretary in the 18thWard). Margie and I played together as youngsters and went to Longwood. She would often come to our home on Wolcott and sing "Indian Love Song" while I fiddled with the melody on the piano. In high school we laughed,worked the "Mission Days" and talent shows. In her youth, Margie had shown an early zest for life. Peace and comfort.
