Dearest Shirley & family,
From the Rooney family; our heartfelt sympathies to you all. It’s very tough on loved ones that are left behind. No doubt Bob is already “reaching out” in Heaven – I’m sure my Dad has something organized! Love & prayers to all of you.
Love, MaryAnn & Daniel Neilson Rooney family
