How can we express the loss we feel without your loving mother Mary? To my mother Stella she was so close that she was more like a beloved sister rather than a sister-in-law. When Stella was told the news she said, 'my heart is broken.' Then she took out pictures of Mary and her husband John and our families sharing good times to reflect upon and cherish. I will always be grateful to my Aunt Mary who took loving care of me on my visits to Fort Devens where I shared idyllic summer days with my cousins, enjoying wonderful times playing and camping in the woods, rides in the country, coin collecting, and gardening with my Aunt and Uncle. Loving prayers also come from Peter and Maria and their daughters Kellie and Stephanie. We are with you in sorrow. We are with Aunt Mary in God's loving spirit always. Amen.
