To all of Mrs. O's family, I am sending all of my sympathy to you. I am a member of St. Mary's Friends of Mary Guild. She was a very special person (My idle) that will be missed by all. When we made our 100 pumpkin rolls, and got a piza, she asked where was the beer, because she always had a beer with her pizza. She will always be in our hearts. DEB Gelenius
