The lighting of a Memorial Candle not only provides a gesture of sympathy and support to the immediate family during their time of need but also provides the gift of extending the Book of Memories for future generations.

"I know someone by that name..."

Mr. McGrath always had a HUGE smile to give me, along with a hug and kiss.   My favorite story about Pop was the one relayed to me by my Godson, Eric , on the birth of Patsy and Eric's second child, Spencer.  I remember Eric saying that when they told Pop the name, Spencer, in the hospital room, Pop responded.  "Ah, I have only known one man by the name of Spencer - he was a man who used to work on the Railroad.  Originally from Jersey City.   Nice man, big man, and gentle and kind as can be. "  Such a sweet and kind comment to share of someone that Pop didn't really even know well, just was a casual acquaintance.

THAT Spencer was MY "Uncle Spence" - Eric's Great Uncle, a sister to Eric's Grandma (my Mom) , Big Bern.  (I was Little Bern because I was younger...certainly not bigger!  LOL)  I love the way God puts people together.

Rest in Peace, Pop.  

Love ,

Aunt Bern  (AB to Sean)
