In our hearts always, We Love you! Donna, Michelle and Sophie! Missing you Grandma Adele!
I will always remember Adele's happy and witty personality and her smile with a bit of a mischievous twinkle in her eyes. She was always the bright light at any get-together. My Mom, children and I, were blessed to spend most holidays with Phil and Adele. They had an inspirational marriage. Phil's love and devotion to his wife was so evident and he selflessly cared for her until her passing. She passed her sense of humor to her son Greg and her Granddaughter Macheala. Rest in peace Adele and Greg.
Dear Phill
The entire Fitzgerald Family sends our deepest sympathies on the passing of your beautiful wife Adele. Adele always had a kind word and a big smile for everyone. We all remember the fun and love the two of you always brought to my Mom and Dad's Saint Patrick's Day Party. All our prayers are with you.
Love The Fitzgerald Family
Dearest Uncle Phil-I am so sorry for the loss of your partner and wife, Adele. There are no words to soothe the heartache you must feel right now. I loved her and how kind she was to everyone. I remember shopping once in Malley's around Christmastime with my dad (Byron), for Aunt Adele's gift. I'm sure everyone had a good laugh when she opened that present! Fond memories of her. With deep sympathy-Laura Bellmay
