Our mother was the pillar of her family – family was everything to her, and she dedicated her life to loving unconditionally and caring for family and friends near and far. In earlier years, she and her husband loved to travel, especially to Rome; She loved speaking with her friends on the phone, listening to sports games, listening to her audio books on the porch on a warm day, caring for her orchids and loved the sounds of birds in the trees. She is preceded in death by her husband Joseph F.
