Kathleen,
Was saddened to read online of the death of your mother. I have fond memories of her (and you) from many years ago. Sacred Heart has lost a very dedicated member. God bless you and your siblings in this time of grief.

Dear Colleen;
I was sad to read of the death of your mom. I have so many memories of her from when we both lived on Pearl Street and caused her no end of headaches:-)
I just wanted you to know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.
