      Craig and Loni, Jean and I extend our sincerest sympathies to you and your families at this difficult time. I have fond memories of your mother during our time in high school and college. She was smart, warm and personable and well-liked by all. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
      Gail Moran Mussoline,
      Craig & Loni,
      I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your Mother. I was a friend of Mary Jo & your Mom when we were younger ( young like grade school). We had so much fun on that Vine Street front porch. I lived above the funeral parlor &  my Grandmother Moran was good friends with your grandparents. Please share my condolences with Mary Jo. Your Mom always had that wonderful smile, which I never forgot. May all your memories bring you comfort with the passing of time. Xo
