"david reilly Relation to Deceased: former teacher I was Antoinette's 6th grade teacher at St. Peter and Paul School in 1969-1970. Anthony was in my class also and the school was full of Blackburns. Several times her mom brought me pasta for lunch. I noticed in the paper that Gemma Musolino had also passed away and I think she was in that class . It has been 41 years, but I remember Antoinette as a smiling happy girl. I hope she will rest in peace. The butterfly emerges from its silken shell- Reborn, it arises, no longer bound to earth.

"Antoinette P. (Dean) Relation to Deceased: sister-in-law Before Antoinette moved to Florida, we used to see each other frequently, our children were young. Ann was very supportive of me on several occasions. The time that stands out the most is when my mother died. Ann stayed at the house and cooked a meal for 30, or more, relatives and guests...smiling, gracious and happy to be of help. When my children's father was ill, we were near her home, and, again, she was cooking away trying to cheer up my family after we spent most of the day in a hospital room. Lest you think I only appreciated her cooking skill...(awesome), it was really her kindness. She was supportive when we needed a friend. I am sorry we lost touch over the years, but when I think of her, and I will, it will be a good thought and a kind memory. She will be missed by family and friends. Safely Home I am home in Heaven dear ones: Oh, so happy and so bright! There is perfect joy and beauty in this everlasting light. All the pain and grief is over, every restless tossing passed I am now at peace forever, safely home in Heaven at last. Then you must not grieve so sorely, for I love you dearly still; try to look beyond earth shadows, Pray to trust our Father's will There is work still waiting for you, so you must not idly stand: do it now, while life remaineth you shall rest in Jesus' land When that work is all completed, He will gently call you Home; oh the rapture of that meeting, oh the joy to see you come!"
