In loving memory of a wonderful person. I will miss my cousin.
Although I did not spend as much time as my older siblings with cousin Mary Kay, when did get together she always made me feel like we were close, and her sense of humor could light up a room, she is loved by me and will be missed, my thoughts and prayers to the family
Mary was a wonderful friend and neighbor and godmother to our son Scott (Fr. Innocent, CFR). She was a kind and lovely women accepting of all. She will be greatly missed by us all.
She loved talking sports with me every time I called
So sorry for your loss. Mary was a wonderful mother – stern but well meaning when necessary, protective of her kids; but also so rightfully proud of each of them and their accomplishments. Missing her laughter and good spirit.
To Tony, Cara and Mia in particular… its been a long, long time since we were neighbors on Byron/Nantucket, but some of my memories are as fresh as if theyd happened yesterday…
Popcorn and cards in the basement, foxholes in the yard, cardboard forts in the garage, kickball in the front, and summer hide-n-seek for the whole block (…and goodness, looking now I cant believe how small the block actually is!).
From my family to yours, know today that our prayers are with you and yours with the hope you feel surrounded by love and boosted by the fond recollections we all will continue to carry of you and your mom.
Mia, memories from the past. I thankful to have known your family for the time that God gave us. Im so sorry for your loss. Thinking of you and praying for your family.
