Jeanne Faranda – arrangements for my Mom

  But first, couple more pictures –

My parents wedding, June 17, 1950

And at my son Joe’s baptism in the fall of 1993. That’s Brigid grinning away, my $25 casio watch on display, and the smiling, extremely attractive woman is Kathy Brusstar. She was standing in as Godmother since the dual Godmother’s – Brigid’s sister Kate and niece Rachel – were both in England.

My Dad Joe had died only a few months before, so the first really happy occasion for my mother & with the new Joe!

Here’s the  previous post about my mother

My mother’s wake is on Wednesday, at the Dorsey Funeral Home on Emwilton Ave. in Ossining, 2-4 and 7-9.

The funeral is at Holy Name of Mary Church on Grand St. in Croton, 10AM Thursday.
