I knew something must have been very wrong Friday, when Dr. Jansen called me, having found my name in Maureen’s file and asked how I was related. When I told him we were simply good friends but that he’d need to contact her daughters/children as all her family lived out of town, he thanked me and again, I knew and worried and began my prayers. I will miss Maureen so very much, both in simply socializing and playing cards. Please let me know if there is anything I can do. Again, my sincere condolences.

I was so sadden to hear of Maureen’s passing. She was such a sweet person. I was volunteer coordinator for Visiting Nurses for many years and Maureen was one of my favorite volunteers. I would visit her often when she loved on Russell Street in Rocky Grove. She even gave me a framed picture of an out house that her husband drew. It has been in my bathroom for years. My prayers are with you and the loss of your sweet loved one.
I am so very sorry to hear about Maureen I always enjoyed our visit and phone talks. She is my mother-in-law’s cousin and I did’t meet hear until only a short time ago. We both enjoyed the love of quilting together. She did lovely quilts. I am happy to have know her for a short while. So very sorry for your lost. Andrea
