My family and I send our sincere condolences to you and yours. We were neighbors on Florie Farm Rd and St. Joe's parishoners for 25+ years. Rest in peace Marie.
Dear Collins Family,
It is difficult to express my condolences with the passing of your wife and BSOMRmom. She was a most dear friend who was always giving and loving to everyone. The times we spent with her leave us with happy memories and joy in having known her. It is those memories which we will draw upon in accepting this loss. May God give you the strength to endure this sadness and the faith to move forward with understanding and countenance.
With heartfelt sympathy and love,
Faye Boyle
Collins Family: I have so many years of great memories that come to mind when I think of "Mrs C" and the Collins Family. Living in Mendham would not mean as much if there were not loving & caring people like "Mr & Mrs C" living down the street from us. Mendham will not be the same. Know we are thinking of your entire family during this difficult time.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. We are lucky to have so many fond memories, - and to have learned the value of family and the meaning of love.
Dear Mr. Collins, Mary Beth, Maura & KC-
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family in such a difficult time. Stay strong, smile at her memories, she wouldn’t have wanted it any other way.
When I was caring for my mother who has dementia in our house, I would take her to church at St.Joseph's whenever it was feasible. She was over 90 at the time(and is 93 now). When we attended the same Mass, Marie would always show her warmth by coming over and asking my mother how she was. Such gestures show what a caring person she must have been to her entire family.
