David, Mark, Monica, & Louis:Sorry I missed the visitation and funeral mass. I just found out about your mother's passing. She and Aunt Toni were the only ones remaining of Mom (Lila) & Dad's (Edward) siblings & their spouses. I recall stopping by Donald & Leona's for a visit now and then when I was younger. Dad would stop by there occasionally when he was taking us fishing at Fairview Park Pond. I always viewed your mom as outgoing, smart, and a good conversationalist. She tended to cut to the chase, and keep the conversations more meaningful. I was always impressed with her Community Players acting hobby. She would occasionally be featured in the newspaper, and I admired her for being able to stand up in front of all those people to express herself. I don't recall the last time I spoke to your mom. It might have been at one of the Skelley aunts' or uncles' funerals? However, I know it is a great loss for you, and we express our deepest sympathy.Richard & Mary Skelley
David, Mark, Monica, and LouisI was sorry to hear this. She was the last of the Aunt's and Uncle's that I grew up with. Your dad took all the wedding pictures for my family. I can still see your Mom hurrying around making sure the shots would be good and the angles perfect. You have my deepest sympathy. She was a lovely lady.Your cousin — Nancy (Edwards daughter)
Grandma was always about family! We love you so much! God bless.
