To: The Quigley Family,
Our love and thoughts are with you during this difficult time.
From Ecclesiastes Chapter 3, Verses 1-8
To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; a time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; a time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; a time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

To Marie and all the family of Dick’s,
I went to DeSales school with Dick and always thought the world of him. We re-met making plans for the 50th reunion of our 1948 class. How great he was to see again and how nice to meet his lovely wife, Marie. Dick kept in touch with cards and on occasion, a phone call. He was especially nice to me when my husband died. He, like my husband, were of the best generation and can never be replaced. My heart goes out to all of you and I will keep you all in my prayers.
Sincerely,
Mary Cassidy Welsh
