Winnie you were a very special lady. I will cherish my memories of us singing and dancing in the kitchen. You getting us a ride home from the irish festival and still talked to us the next day. Eileen and family your mother is so proud of you. She would say she was the lucky one to have had you. She’s with your dad now running along a beach with an irish song in the wind. May she sing and dance in peace. Love Debbie
