Grandmom, The Heavenly Father has called you home and you even said that to my mother and I when we saw you in November. I am your 1st and oldest grandson and proud to be. My fondest memories was in 1980’s with many delicious dinners and many early morning discussions while you and grandpop enjoyed your coffee. Countless trips to horse track, many drives out to Reading PA outlets to go shopping. That ever so famous rotary phone with a loud ring and always that whistling tea pot in the afternoon. U made it to 93 not bad at all,

Mom, I love you and I will miss you with all my heart. I am so so sorry. Love, Dee

We remember how at our wedding in '99, when a mummer's song was played, Catherine or Cookie, as we knew her, threw down the cane she was using to get out there on the dance floor. She knew how to enjoy herself and we pray that most of her life gave her pleasure. She'll be missed by all her children and family and us.

I have many good memories with my Mother and one of them is Mom teaching me how to make cookies at a young age. The table memory that my Brother Ron mentioned is a classic. 😂

One of my favorite memories of my grand-mom is just a couple weeks before she passed. I was visiting her and she asked if I could help her put on some makeup so I said sure. She wanted me to put on eyebrows for her. I was playing around and asking her if she would like some lipstick too, And she said yes so without hesitation, I grabbed some lipstick out of her drawer. She wanted to try to put it on herself, so I handed her a mirror she was doing a pretty good job for a 93. Then all of a sudden she started putting the lipstick on her fingers and she decided to put it on her cheeks as blush. I laughed so much I said grand mom Do you have a hot date and she said you never know. She still had her sense of humor, and I will never forget this memory with my grandmother. ♥️ grandma you will never be forgotten, but always be missed and always be in my heart.

One of my favorite memories of my Mom was her chasing my Brother around the Dining Room table and eventually just climbing over the table to get to him. She was never outwitted
