To Maria and family of Viola, our condolences to you and the family, knew Viola’s family when we teens, Aunt Maria was in my wedding, many good memories. Grandmom Celestine was a strong woman and that was taught to all her girls, which Viola passed on to you Maria. I never really met you until I happen to post a picture of our wedding part and you saw it on facebook and so you are one of my facebook friends. Praying for you for God’s comfort and peace to help you in this grieving time/
My deepest sympathy to you and your family on the loss of your dear mother
I remember when we were kids she always loved to play the piano and the Three Sisters would sing they were very religious God bless her and her sister and brother in heaven may they rest in peace
