My Ticket To Heaven
I always considered her my ticket to heaven because of all the stuff we did together. Wednesday was always "Date Night With Bill" when I'd take her to and from choir rehearsal. I often sat with her and her cats while she regaled me with stories of her Harry, Jimmy and her other children. While at her house there was usually a light bulb to be changed and I loved doing her little chores. Covid made my visits less frequent but we made up for it with phone calls. I'll miss her in innumerable ways and as someone ion the choir remarked, let's see how she handles running Heaven.
My choir friend
My deepest condolences to her family.
I met Mary Alice through the OLC choir- she was so sweet to me. I loved the expressions she would make if we were asked to sing something that was particularly difficult. She was always warm and genuine. I’ll miss her.
Sending my love to Mare, Joe,
Sending my love to Mare, Joe, Maureen, Harry and family. Mary Alice's wit and candor will be greatly missed. I know her tales will live on, even if she cannot be close. Praying for God's peace to grace your hearts now that she is with him.
My dear friend, Mary Alice
