We wish to extend our condolences on the passing of your Mother. As treasured as she was to all of you I can say on behalf of my brothers & sister that Aunt Carm always made us feel welcome in her home. Sharing stories & conversations that inevitably had us all laughing. We always looked forward to visiting with Aunt Carm & Uncle Fred because we would be greeted with a big hug & encouraged to participate in some lively conversations.
