    To the entire Jackie Johnas family.
    Jim and I want to express the saddness of the passing of Mary. She was like family to us and the memories of her coming to visit us here in Maryland will always be in our hearts. We had so much fun the week she spent with us. I still can see her sittng on Sharks Tooth Island enjoying the sunshine and more so the ride back home with the wind in her hair. I will post some photos of that trip later today.

    Words from the Irish:

    The sorrow of the faithful
    is not that of permanent loss,
    but the tender sense of sadness
    that comes in saying good-bye
    for now to someone we love.
    May today’s sorrow give way to the
    peace and comfort of God’s love
