Personal note from Alissa and Cassie

Mom passed away peacefully in her sleep in the early morning hours of 7/29/24. Cassie and Dad had been sitting by her bedside for many hours that night, talking to her, reminding her how much she is loved and telling her it was ok to leave -- that we will all be ok. They told her to say hello to Maryanne and Andy from all of the family! We know she is with them all now, catching up and watching over all of us.
