Your mom was a very special lady and loved by everyone who knew her. I will always remember your mom's smile and you all should remember to hold on tight to your mom's memories, she will always be there, watching over all of you. Now she is at peace and with her loving husband after 24 years without him. So many of her friends have gone before her but she is with them now. My deepest sympathy goes out to your whole family at this time.

Rest in peace! You were pretty much family to me as Ron's Mom, Eileen's mother-in-law, and Grandma to Billy and Kathleen. We celebrated many holidays and special occasions together. I personally loved your Irish wit and wonderful sense of humor. Your loyalty to Canaryville and service to St. Gabriel were so exemplary and will surely be rewarded in heaven. So many there must be so thrilled to have you even though you will be so missed here. God Bless.

Your mother was a kind and wonderful lady. I would always see her at all the functions being held at St. Gabriel's. She would always take the time and chat about the good old days, talk about our health, and talk about our children.
I will not be able to attend either of the services due to a minor health issue.
I will always keep your mother's smiling face and cheerful voice in my mind and heart.
My condolences to all.
