Sincerest condolences to the entire family.
Just to let you know you are not alone.
You are in our thoughts and prayers,
The Tomic-Beard Family
Our mom, Marion Keefe, has such fond memories of “Dottie and Tom”, her cousins. Our Nana Bertha and Aunt Mary are close to our hearts constantly. We lost our Dad, Jerry Keefe, in May and even though we had him for 87 years, it’s doesn’t make it easier.
On behalf of our mother, please know how sorry we are for your loss and we’re thinking of you.
Our sincere symphathies,
Mark,Marianne,Lorraine,Jerry & Jeff Keefe
We are so sorry for your loss. It’s been a tough year for everyone of us. We were out of town and couldn’t make it to MA in time but know that our hearts and prayers are with you. We will drink a toast to all the McHugh’s that we’ve lost in the past months and I have a feeling that if there are “spirits” in heaven, they will be toasting with us! Again, we know the pain.
