My thoughts and prayers are with you all. I'll never forget how warm and welcoming she was while I was away from my own family and attending Stonehill. I would tag along with Kerry when she came home, and she always made me feel like part of the family. She touched many lives and will be missed. Tricia Carmody Piccini
