Charlie, Greg, Cheryl and "Little Nicky". I am so very sorry to hear of your loss. Your mother was a great woman who loved her family dearly. My fondest memory is sitting in her kitchen where she taught me how to make the best pizza!! I will miss her. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this very difficult time. Cookie and Tom

My deepest sympathy to all in the family on the loss of your mother. I treasured our friendship the many years living on Maple Street. She was part of the family due to Charlie and Joanne's wedding. I know her loss is great, but she will always be with you in heart and mind. She has rejoined her beloved husband.
