Dear Mary and family:



I am so sorry to hear that your Mom passed away. Even though we haven't kept in touch, I still can laugh at some of the old high school memories! You kept me laughing, from the chipmunk burgers in the cafeteria to those dorky yellow gym suits we had to wear! Remember almost flunking Geometry? I also remember coming over to your house and how your Mom was always so kind. Plus, she made the best Irish Soda Bread in the world! I also remember the times we'd call each other, crying and complaining about our mothers. Now that I have a 20 year old daughter, I see things from the other side. I hope you and the family are doing okay. I also hope that you have a chance to read this before it gets erased from the Guest Book.



My thoughts and prayers are with you. Take care.

Mary & Johnnie & Families..

My deepest condolences on the death of your Mother. She will be missed very much. She was a very good friend to Mike and myself and the kids when they were growing up.

Sorry I could not be there at this time, but she is in my prayers.
