Mary, I am so shocked and saddened by Madonna's passing. Many years have passed since we first met in CCD classes at St. Joe's and I always concidered both of you special friends. My deepest sympathies to you and your family.

My deepest sympathy on the loss of Madonna. She was a regular customer of ours at the Wildside florist. She always had a big smile on her face. She bought flowers every week for her mom and herself. She always made my day and came into the back room to give me a hug and always called me honey. I'm very saddened over the loss of her. May god bless all of you.

Dear Rita & Mary,
How very sad to read of your loss...I had no idea
that Madonna was a graduate of Laboure. I went to
the 120 anniversary Mass on Sunday @ St. Gregory's
my daughter Kathleen was a graduate also. What a
wonderful contribution and impact Madonna made
to so many lives. What a loss not only to family
but to the many patients that she has helped.
We really know the pain as we lost a daughter last
year and the heartache is long lasting.
Please know that you are all in our prayers.
God Bless, The O'Brien's, Teresa, Bob & family
