Dear Tom, Bill, Bob, Mary, and McTighe and Prelack families-

Kathy, John, Tom and I were very saddened to hear the news of your mother´s death. She was the last of our family´s appropriately dubbed "greatest generation," so we feel her loss is particularly profound.

On a personal level, Dot was my favorite aunt and I have cherished memories of Westwood and Cape weekends spent with her invariably at the center of all the fun; and I will never forget her special, Sunday morning, perfectly halved and sectioned grapefruit with center cherries. Those were the halcyon days.

I am attaching a photo of our Grandparents´ 50th wedding anniversary gathering taken in Southbridge in the mid 60´s with only Uncle Bob missing whom I surmise was the camera man. Look at the three glamorous ladies seated on the floor. Wowie!

Please accept our heartfelt condolences-

Dick and John McTighe

Where to begin? Dot was an amazing lady, friend to my mom, and second mother to me. She will be in my heart forever.

I have so many cherished memories of spending time Mary, Dot, and the entire McTighe family. My heart aches for your loss. John and I send our love and hugs to you all.
