Debbie, Terry, Jody & Family,

My heartfelt condolences on the passing of your Mom. I have so many wonderful memories of her while growing up on Pythian Avenue and hanging out at your house. My husband Jim knew and loved her from the Farm Shop. Then later in years we reconnected with her while bringing our daughter to the Y for swim lessons, and your Mom was there with her grandchildren.

Abundant Blessings,
Diana & Jim

The world just lost a beautiful, classy, funny lady. Donald is rejoicing in heaven. His girl has come home.
God bless the entire Schroeder family. I hope you find comfort knowing she is with the man she admired and adored.

Mary was my second mother for my early years. We lived next door and I remember it always felt like “going to grandma’s” when I climbed the stairs to visit Mary. I remember her sweet, gentle nature fondly. When we moved to the east end of Torrington, I wanted to be back on Pythian Avenue so I packed up, got on my bike, and rode it to Mary’s, where I asked if I could live there (I was 5). Farewell, dear Mary and Godspeed!

Dear Schroeder family, sorry for your loss. Your mom was such a lovely lady. May these days ahead be special and a time remembering her life and legacy. Laugh a little, cry a little, and be thankful for the wonderful parents you had. They were so devoted to you, their kids and grandkids.

I am so sorry to read of Mary's passing . In the 1960's teenagers who "hung" at Scarpelli's were known as "Greasers" and those who "hung" at the Farm Shop were known as "Rah Rah's" . I was a Rah Rah and made sure that I and my buddies sat at whatever both Mary was serving that evening . What a charming, delightful , and sympathetic lady she was . My deep condolences to all who knew and loved her.

For so many years I would hear stories about you and how much you love them. They were there for you so many times and I know how much you're appreciated and loved them. I am so sorry your mom has past but I know she knows how much you loved and appreciated her.

So sorry about her passing. We would always see each other in the grocery store and talk about her grandkids that used to take Karate with me. She was a very special person. May she rest in peace!

My sincerest condolences on the loss of your mom. People thought that she was my mother at time, I was thrilled by that ! She was a wonderful lady, always smiling. They were such great friends, that Club of '45. I enjoyed all our picnics and luncheons.

Debbie, Terry And Jody, I was so sorry to hear about your Mom. She was such a nice lady and always had a smile on her face. I'll never forget the many burgers she served me at the Farm Shop, and the little conversations we had when we met somewhere. Hope you all are doing okay.

A dear, sweet lady. She was my favorite of my mom's (Vi) friends. When she worked at Card Gallery, we used to make fun of the stuff in the store. I'm so sorry for your loss. She was a such a sweetheart.

Deborah, Jodi and family,

I am so sorry for your loss. I feel honored to have known her. She had a wonderful sense of humor and can always make me smile. I never had a visit where she didn't smile and crack a joke. She had a wonderful sense of humor. Try to be at peace knowing she is with your dad. She loved him so much. They were my "notebook" couple.

Hugs,

Kelli
