Al, Doug, Laura, we are so sorry to hear of your loss. May you find comfort in wonderful memories. I remember her always attending scouting events at St. Marys and other school activities. It was easy to see she was a proud grandmother.
Eternal rest, grant unto them, O Lord,
and let perpetual light shine upon them.
May the souls of the faithful departed
through the mercy of God rest in peace.
Amen.
Eternal rest, grant unto them, O Lord,

A beautiful light in this world has dimmed..my sisters and I loved your Mother and considered her family. She was such a wonderful friend, not only to my Mother, but to all of us.

Mom
As anyone who has had the pleasure of having my mother in their life knows..she was the most generous, thoughtful and giving person. Even if she didn’t have alot, she would give you anything you need. She never forgot an occasion…and would always send cards for birthdays, anniversaries, get wells or just to say thinking of you. She enjoyed her years being a member of the St. Mary’s Rosary Society in Bayonne and enjoyed spending time with her beloved friends Eleanor Tieffenworth and Eleanor Dietz. Mom adjusted well when she moved to Keansburg and loved living with my sister Judi. She joined the Bayshore Senior Center where she made many friends. Even so, she would still travel back up to Bayonne to visit and keep her “Bayonne” friends company when they weren’t feeling well.
I remember some of the phrases that she always used to say and realize how much of a reflection they are of her as a person. She taught us as children to always share fairly “Whoever cuts, the other chooses.” As we grew older she would tell us that if we didn’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all. She also taught us to be kind to people and to never ask if a person needed anything, but to always just bring something. My favorite words of advice from my mother, which I follow to this very day, are “Don’t give to one without the other.”
My mother adored her grandchildren, Al, Doug, Paul, Laura, Eugene, Kevin and John Michael. There was nothing that she wouldn’t do for them. She was beyond thrilled when she became a great grandmother to Kenley Sue, Al and Kate’s daughter. The most recent love of her life was Mena, her Sister Lee’s great granddaughter. She loved hearing stories about her and always carried her picture in her pocketbook proudly showing all of her friends at Regency.
My mother had a beautiful personality and a great sense of humor. Mom always laughed at Gene’s jokes and they would share clever comebacks. Up until the very end, she was in good spirits and would have a funny anecdote to share. It is easy to understand how she quickly formed many new friendships at the Regency and how every nurse, therapist and doctor who cared for her loved her.
I am so happy to have recently reminisced with mom about so many things, including stories about her childhood , her trips to Connecticut to visit her cherished niece Mame, James, Kathryn and Meghan, memories of her beloved Susan, her love for her sisters Lee, Ethel, Elaine and her brother Joe and of course the love of her life, “Honey.” We recently chatted about her anniversary this past January 6th and she smiled and told me that if Gene and I had as much love as they did, then we are lucky. I smiled back and agreed.
Rest in Peace Mom – I love you.
