John and Tom: Sorry to hear about your mother’s passing, but happy to know that she had a full and active 95 years. I got to know your mom when I lived next door to your folks in the early 1990’s. They were great neighbors, always friendly and helpful.

Thank you very much Ed!!!
I had the pleasure of working with Mary when she worked at Betty Lee’s and I worked for the newspaper, I would see her many times a week! Mary was so cheerful, and a couple times she’ would invite me to lunch at her house. I’ve thought a lot about Mary many times through the years! Tom and John, you had a great Mom!
Thank you Eileen !!!
