My thoughts and prayers are with the Foran family. Mrs. Foran was a special lady. I have fond memories of seeing her out in the yard when I was growing up. She was always smiling and so happy. Another angel has arrived in Heaven. God bless her!

Mrs. Foran is one of the kindest sweetest people I have met. I use to enjoy talking to her when I was a child and even later in life. Our families have been neighbors for many years. My thoughts are with the family at this difficult time.
