I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Aunt Mary. I have many fond memories of her, Uncle Frank and the family. Lots of memories of the family picnics in the yard in North Haven. She was a great lady and may God bless her and give the family strength to get through this difficult time.
I have read such beautiful eulogies on the internet about Mary… she certainly was an amazing mother, grandmother,great-grandmother as evidenced by all the beautiful writings. She will never be really gone! There are too many wonderful memories to help comfort her family and ease their pain. xxoo
My condolences, to you, MaryAnn and your family.
sorry for your loss sending prayers
You have all lost a wonderful woman (mother, grandmother, greatgrandmother and extended family) My thoughts and prayers are with you. Mr. And Mrs. Vece raised a wonderful family of five children and I must say they helped "raise" their childrens friends too, as we were always welcome, always fed, and always entertained. You have all suffered a great loss, but I thank God that she had each of you in her life. God bless you all and may you find peace in your memories.
Dear MaryAnne and family,
I am so sorry for your loss. My love and prayers are with you all at this
bewildering time.
I only knew Mary for one week but she will remain in my heart forever.
Fran, Doreen, MaryAnn, Tony, Mike, Kim my deepest condolences So sorry to hear of your loved ones passing. My prayers go out to your entire family. God bless you all.
Aunt Mary was a very special person she was a second mom to me. The memories of good times with my cousin MaryAnn and the Vece family will always stay with me. All of you are in my thoughts and prayers.
