    We were so shocked and saddened to hear of Aunt Shirley’s death. We have wonderful memories of her visits with us in Boston and Gloucester. She was so full of life and laughter. She will be sorely missed. I’m sorry that I’m unable to join you, but my husband, Tom, will be there to be with the family.

    Dear Arlene, Tracey,
    Karen, Jeanine and Tom,

    There isn’t any worst nightmare than loosing your mother and our
    long time friend in such a tragic and abrupt manner. We can imagine what you are going through!

    Remember; your mother had the ability to find humor in the most
    absurd and painful situations.

    She was one great lady and friend!

    Our hearts and prayers are with each of you, always.

    Love To All,

    Mary Anne John Heffernon
