Dear Maureen, Maria and me are very saddened about Genes passing. Some of my fondest memories are times we spent together playing ball and just hanging out. We have known each other over 60years. Throughout this time I can tell you he was pretty quiet and very casual and truly good friend. Heaven has gained another angel that we are sure he will watching over you . Our thoughts and prayers are with you and family. If there is anything you need, feel free to reach out to us. Jimmy

Dear Maureen, Our hearts are broken for you and the loss of our friend Gene. So many beautiful fun memories with you both. Sharing Christmas Eve’s in Florida with our family. The parties we had in Cedarcrest, too many to mention. The beautiful dinner parties shared. The lifelong friendship and sisterhood bond we have. When you pleaded for us not to move to NC. We shall always remember Gene as the wonderful friend, neighbor and athlete who would give you the shirt off his back if you asked. We shall remember Gene in his strong days and know we are always there for you. It pains us we cannot be together in your time of grief. We love you forever Maureen. XOXO Kathy and Rick

Your patience and understanding is greatly appreciated . Your services to George and our family were above and beyond our expectations. Thank you never seems sufficient when the situation appears and is often overwhelming. Your concern for us and our guests will never be forgotten.

... throughout these back to back losses, your gracious concern and professionalism made the time special.

.. not only are you the best - but the town / village of Warwick respects you very much. All with good reason.

I just wanted to thank you and your staff for making Mom’s Memorial Service a success. We appreciate your professionalism and attention to detail.

I believe Mom would have been very pleased with the whole production. Thanks again for making Mom’s day a special memory for our family and friends.

Thank you for all your kindness, compassion and walking me through this very difficult journey with ease. The services were perfect and beautiful because of you. You are very special people and I will never forget you.
