    Dear Massung family members,
    Pam et.al. we are thinking of you during this difficult time of loss of your mom / granny. She was a supportive and bright light in many lives. I’m glad we got to know her to some degree. Louise was always welcoming to us at Pam’s and Tom’s or at her own home in EC over the years, and was quick to share food (cookies, pasta…) and a smile. Even in some fairly recent photos, she was beaming. But loved ones were near physically, as well as in spirit and prayer so it’s no surprise. May Louise rest easy and remain cherished in your hearts and memories and may any human foibles – we all have them – become a source of humor and fondness. Sincerely and with love, Kim and Matt
