Bob, Tom and Danny, so very sorry I can't be with you as you celebrate your mom's life... She was a very special Lady and will be missed.. I have so many memories of your family: babysitting you boys, getting caught by your dad riding around in the car
in PJ's.. :-). Your mom was always available for a visit or for "mentoring".. She lived the life she talked about: following her Lord... Thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
