My dear friend, theatre buddy and high school classmate, Jim, has welcomed his wonderful bride into heaven to live face to face in God’s love. It was wonderful to meet Maureen some years ago, although I did not really get to know her – my loss. May the joyful memories of her time on earth and the love she gave to so many people be a source of strength and smiles for those of us left behind.
I will always remember Maureen for her beautiful smile and great sense of humor. We were good friends all through grade school and after attending different high schools, we still kept in touch. We had many sleepovers, and always enjoyed the St. Andrew’s picnics together. We also played on the same softball team, with her dad coaching. She was so proud of Patrick, Laura and her grand-babies! May you rest in peace Maureen with Jim and please tell your lovely parents hello for me. Won’t forget you!
