Please accept my deepest sympathy at this very sad time. Linda J. Venskus, NHS Class of 1974. Maura was so intelligent and wore such a happy smile.

Dan, so sorry about Maura. I will always remember that grin when she smiled, as if she knew something and you didn't kind of grin. She always kept you guessing! At least she is peaceful and out of conflict. We both know what it feels like when your parents are gone, now we are entering the time in our lives where we are losing our siblings. Nothing we certainly want to go through. I am so sorry Dan.

Dan,
Very saddened to hear of Maura's passing. Our friends at #72 hold a very special place in our hearts. Will always remember Maura's kindness and wonderful spirit.
Fondly,
Joan and Jim Sullivan

Dany I don't know if you remember me Maura and I were very good friends in high school and I was also from the same neighborhood. My family and I send sincere sympathies to you and your family during this very trying time. Find peace in knowing she is at peace and in the loving arms of family.
