To Bob, Debbie, and all the Blakesley family,
We were your back yard neighbors for many years, and Bob was my bike-riding, baseball-playing buddy for what seems like my entire childhood. Your Mom was the most humble, pleasant woman. She seemed to tolerate our shenanigans so easily, all while maintaining tight control of the family. I will offer my next Rosary for her, and for all of you. We know that your Mom is now in the loving arms of Our Blessed Mother being presented to Our Lord, in person. Her rewards will be great in Heaven. Peace, friends.
