Quoting what my brother spoke of in our father's eulogy- "if wealth were measured by friendships-my parents would be billionaires" well if my parents were billionaires you and Mr Lally would be trillionaires+++! What a beautiful testament to the life you lived and the family you raised! What an honor it is to call them all my friend:) I thank you for taking care of me when I suffered from my first drunk episode; spoke to me about whether or not I was ready to get married; the many breakfasts on 63rd (restaurant name forgotten for now); just letting me "hang out" and for allowing me to have the best memories ever! You are at peace, pain free and with the love of your life however the Lally Legacy will live on for many years ahead and how proud you both will be-You put it all into placeGod Speed Mrs Lally always in my heart! Thank you
