I really feel sadness at the passing of my Aunt Maryann. Yes, she is now in heaven with Uncle Pat and our loss is heaven’s gain. God bless them both as they did us with their love and kindness.
We will miss our summer visits in Warren and hearing all about Hitty and the Civil War stories and the provenance of all your bears. I deeply admire the way you maintained your cheerful outlook even through your suffering and loss. I know that you love the Lord and I believe He has gathered you gently into His arms. Rest sweetly there Aunt Mary Ann until we meet again.
My sincere condolences to you and family Murphy may your Mom Rest In Peace
My condolences to the Murphy family. God bless y’all
.God has welcomed another angel into His kingdom. Rest in peace, cousin.
