To the Neary Family,
Our condolences, your mother was a kind and wonderful lady. She will be missed dearly by any whom have had the pleasure of meeting her.
Your Mom (and Nan) touched many people’s lives – and in a special way, mine included. For many years she was like my second mom. I have many happy memories of time spent with her, and I’m so grateful I got the chance to know her. Wishing you peace and comfort.
Neary Family
