I hope that God comforts the whole Daly family during this difficult time. Never had the opportunity to meet Mary, but she definitely raised a great son in Brian.

Daly Family, my deepest sympathy to you all. Mrs. Daly was always the kindest to us neighbors. We sure were lucky because we were pretty wild. I know she is now at peace. My thoughts are with each of you.
