My daughter and I lived across the street from Romey - and one could not have a better neighbor or friend. Romey had that wonderful and too rare absolute love of life - you could see it in her eyes, hear it in her laugh. She was truly one of the most genuine, giving and loving people we have ever met. She will be missed by all who every met her. Our deepest condolences. She watched over us on the block, and now she will from above.

I will keep Miss Yonan in my prayers and Masses. I attended St. Ita Grade School 1 year behind Helen and Mark Zerang (your cousin?)
