Sad news

[Drew]

Laid Mom to rest yesterday in a most amazing ceremony held at our church in SW Baltimore City, St. Joseph's Monastery. A mini cathedral that could not be built in today's economy, Mom sung in the choir for many years. The vocalist for the service was a young woman whose rendition of the Ave Maria was the most moving and perfect I've heard... incredible voice! As we exited the church we were surprised by 6 Baltimore City motorcycle officers who greeted us and escorted the procession to the cemetery in southern Baltimore County, stopping traffic at every intersection allowing for a non stop, exciting procession. Citizenry stopped to watch the procession in wonderment along the road ways and I can only imagine their thoughts as to who the dignitary was being escorted in such grand fashion. A most perfect funeral for our great lady who would have probably objected to that use of taxpayer money.
Thank you all for your kind thoughts and prayers during this most sad time for our family.
