To the family of Maureen Farrelly

I have had the pleasure of having her in my life she was a very special woman who had a wonderful gift of being compassionate,& loving. I remember one day I had admired a ring she was wearing

she took it off and insisted I keep it I still have that ring and I will treasure it forever. I will pray for all of you and please know that she will be truly missed.

She will always have a special place in my heart.

My sincerest sympathies to Maureen's family. I had the pleasure of serving with Maureen on Our Lady of Hope's Parish Council for the last two years and was always uplifted by Maureen's faith, humor, strong opinions, and great generosity. We will miss her greatly, but are comforted by the fact that she is now back home with God.
