Vivien Cisternino Relation to Deceased: Cousin I don’t know where to begin. Growing up with Mary Jane was fun. I remember how she always gave us her hand me down clothes. She had a good heart and was always there when you needed someone to talk to or a shoulder to cry on. Her love for her family was amazing. She talked me into Volunteering . We used to go to her house every week and we would have a great time. Mere I will miss you and I will keep you in my heart. With all my Love Vivien The butterfly emerges from its silken shell- Reborn, it arises, no longer bound to earth. Free at last, the butterfly glides to heights unknown before. So do our loved ones find a beautiful release as, earthbound no more, they leave our sight and joyfully rise to a garden of matchless beauty, a place of light and peace. -Evelyn Phillips
Jo Ann Boulis Relation to Deceased: Friend To a wonderful friend, to all the dinners we have shared with our group,at Bill Greys, Schallers& Yanni’s. You will be sorely missed. Say hello to Audrey for us. Till we all meet again. The celebration of life, shared in the beginning, and again, in the end. Yet we forget to celebrate it, in every moment we live. Time, days, years, go on, but are we alive? Alive and do not know it, sleeping in the world and dead to the life we are to live. To celebrate all life, the sparrow who sang in the morning, and died in the night, why do we not celebrate its life? To know thyself is to know you are alive – to give, to love, to seek truth, beauty, and suffer pain. In life as it is meant to be, pain is forgotten, and strength is all that’s left to be gained in the moment by moment celebration of life. By Deborah Peabody

Jackie Shovan Relation to Deceased: friend I will miss Mary Jane’s laugh and her great sense of humor…My heart goes out to Joe, Lee, VIvian and Diane..I am so sorry that you all have lost such a loved family member..She will be greatly missed.
Gina DAmbrosio Relation to Deceased: Cousin I’ll never forget visiting you when I was a small child. You were always so loving and always smiling. You will be greatly missed. Love forever and always, Gina xoxo I think no matter where you stray, That I shall go with you a way. Though you may wander sweeter lands, You will not forget my hands, Nor yet the way I held my head Nor the tremulous things I said. You will still see me, small and white And smiling, in the secret night, And feel my arms about you when The day comes fluttering back again. I think, no matter where you be, You’ll hold me in your memory And keep my image there without me, By telling later loves about me. Dorothy Parker
Elise M Carvel Relation to Deceased: Friend and colleague My dear Mary Jane , my heart is so heavy at this time. I will be lost without you on Wednesday mornings at the hospital. I remember when we met 14 years ago at St. Mary’s . You were so warm and caring , treated me like a daughter. All these years you have given me so much advice with my family and relationships. We have had many laughs and cries. I feel like I am crying alone now. I know so much about you and your family and yet not enough. Now you are home with the Lord and your parents and your brother you haven’t seen in so long. Give Audrey my love . I will miss you on Facebook as well. I will never forget you Mary Jane you were truly an inspiration, love you so much Elise As we look back over time We find ourselves wondering ….. Did we remember to thank you enough For all you have done for us? For all the times you were by our sides To help and support us ….. To celebrate our successes To understand our problems And accept our defeats? Or for teaching us by your example, The value of hard work, good judgement, Courage and integrity? We wonder if we ever thanked you For the sacrifices you made. To let us have the very best? And for the simple things Like laughter, smiles and times we shared? If we have forgotten to show our Gratitude enough for all the things you did, We’re thanking you now. And we are hoping you knew all along, How much you meant to us.
