My deepest sympathy to John and Rita, to Rege and Libbie and the whole Flaherty family on the loss of your mother at age 98. I am sorry I was not able to make the viewing or funeral Mass. My prayers. May she rest in peace.
The Flaherty family is a big part of my childhood memories. Your mother was such a sweet person. I can distinctly hear her voice and see her face light up when she smiled. You are all in my thoughts. You had her a long time, but I know you are missing her. Love, Arlene
