Sorry to hear about Aunt Mona. I have memories of eating “jelly bread” when we would visit.
My mom, Agnes, really enjoyed their phone conversations. She is going to miss talking with her.

Balaine family, my husband & I were so saddened to hear about Mona’s passing. I will cherish the times that we spent together talking about the good old days. I’m thankful that I got to say I love you one more time a few days before her passing. I will miss this special lady who touched my heart but I know that she is in a better place now that she is reunited with her husband that she missed so much.
John, Donna and Family,
So sorry to hear of your loss. You are in our thoughts.
John, Donna and Family,
My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family during your time of great loss. I was so saddened to hear of your mom’s passing. She was a great woman and someone I considered family. She was an amazing friend to my grandmother. I remember the days of seeing her walking and the funny things we shared. I will forever miss my “MONA BOLOGNA”!! She was a kind woman who always greeted me with a hug, kiss and a smile. May she rest in peace and have been greeted by “Sonny” upon her arrival to the other side. My deepest condolences.
John, Donna and family,
