Veronica, lost of a mother what every the age is terrible. I wishing you comfort that she is in better hands now, after being failing for many year. We had many thinking in common with EU family, traditions, cottages. My heart goes out for you all. My mothers time is coming very soon also at 95 yrs old.
Dear Veronica,
Your mother always held a special place in my parents’ and our family’s hearts.
My prayers for your mom and heartfelt condolences to you and your family.
With love,
Hilary D’Souza. Our sincere condolences to the family
May Maria Rest in Peace. 🙏🏼
I am so sorry for the family’s loss. Please accept my deepest condolences to everyone during this difficult time. I’m truly sorry that I was unable to be there in person because I’m sick, but please know that I am thinking and keeping you all in my prayers.
Maria was such a lovely person. She always made me feel like I was part of the family, and I will always be grateful for the warmth and kindness she showed me. I especially loved our talks and those drives home from church together. I will always cherish those memories.
May Maria rest in peace.
