We all loved Maureen dearly, and our hearts were broken as she struggled to breath and talk. We will miss her tremendously, but she can now rest in peace and enjoy eternal life with Stephen, our parents, our brother, and other family members.
I know Maureen will be sorely missed. She was a lovely person, and we visited her often when she was in New England. I’m saying prayers for your whole family.
