Dana and Dawn, I am sorry for your loss. We all loved your mom. We had many fun times growing up. My mom and her were so funny together. I hope they are both at peace. You are all in our prayer. Donna Remedis and family, Carver, MA
DANA AND DAWN,YOU ARE IN MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS. YOUR MOTHER WAS A VERY UNUSUAL BUT PRECIOUS FRIEND. FROM OUR FIRST YEAR WHEN WE MOVED IN AS NEIGHBORS AT O’NEIL DR.,WE
CLICKED. SHE HAD SUCH A WIERD SENSE OF HUMOR,THAT ONLY ANOTHER W/THE SAME, WOULD EVER UNDERSTAND HER. SHE WILL BE MISSED BY SO MANY. I WILL MISS OUR LATE PHONE CONVERSATION MOST OF ALL. I KNOW SHE IS WITH HER HIGHER POWER NOW, AND I WILL PRAY THAT GOD HOLDS YOU AND HER SISTERS AND THEIR CHILDREN IN THE PALM OF HIS HANDS,DURING THIS TIME OF GRIEF. SHE LOVED AND SPOKE OF YOU ALL SO OFTEN.
