Condolence: My mom was one amazing woman and one heck of a fighter. She hung on for a year when doctors gave us no hope at all after diagnosing her with a life expectancy of less than 3 months. She defied the odds and God graced us with another year of having her in our lives. Up until the last two weeks of my mother's life, she was basically pain free. The last two weeks took it's toll on mom, and she went home to be with her husband and the rest of her family and friends. I am grateful that I had my mom for 51 years of my
life! People at the wake kept telling me how much I resembled her...It made me feel very proud....If only I was half the woman my mother was! Thank you to Angelo and Debra for making this difficult time as pain free as possible. Thank you to all the people who came to pay their respects to my mom. And thank you Father Mike for giving a funeral service that would have made my mom so happy. Yes, mom was an "elegant" woman. I will miss her dearly for all the rest of my days.

Condolence: We loved Aunt Helen and have such wonderful memories of her. Surely it was a joyful reunion of their family, now together again. We grieve with you for your loss and ours. Love to all of you, Fran, Jane Anne & John, Hope & Charles, Wendy & John, Jim & David
