Please accept my sympathy and prayers for the passing away of your mom. I met MaryAnne when I attended a CHRP weekend at St Patricia's. Her team was hosting the weekend for us. She impressed me so much with her faith, calm, caring toward all of us. I found out that she grew up in my old neighborhood and attended Our Lady of Good Counsel. I attendned SS Peter and Paul Church so although we were in the same neighborhood and basically the same age we did not meet until St Patricia's. I also found out that your Dad knew my Mom as he was from the area and worked on the milk truck with his Uncle Kibby who owned a grocery store in the area at 33rd and Ashland. Small world - wonderful couple - what small consolation to you all that your parents are together watching over you all. God Bless you in your loss and the loss of a wonderful couple to St Pat's.

My deepest condolences to the family of Marv and Maryann. I knew both of them long before they married, when they were just dating, and was saddened to read of their deaths. Take comfort in knowing that they are together in God's arms.
