Brant and family…my sincere sympathies to all of you at this very sad time. May the passing of time help you to heal..sending much love
I am so sorry to learn of Maureen’s passing. I worked with her at the Hunt Memorial Hospital. She was so kind and gentle. I’ll remember her sweet smile she often had as we worked together on 2 West. Her work ethic was second to none, often quietly skipping lunch to continue caring for her patients. I’m glad she was part of my life, albeit briefly. God bless her. Dana
Dear Brant, please accept my deepest sympathies and condolences on the loss of your beloved Mother. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family, Kippy
Although I never met Maureen in person, that didn’t stop me from realizing what a sweet, loving, caring and generally wonderful woman she was. I work for Dr. Masucci’s answering service and had the pleasure of speaking to Maureen often (sometimes it seemed like it was every night). What a blessing she was. I feel blessed just to have been able to speak to her and wish I could have met her in person.
