Growing up in Cheshire, I really just liked all things Bruno. Every Bruno I knew, and there were plenty of you!, was great in some way. I was always glad when Brunos were around! But, I have to say it was only as an adult who looks back, that I realized what a wonderful person Mary was. The one time I had the chance to visit with her in the last 20 years...I told her how much I appreciated her sponsoring our fledgling Cheshire High School Club Ski team. It is only now that I am a parent that I really realize the efforts she made, to be a GREAT mom. Because now I know how much effort it takes to do all the things she did. Hosting me at your house for play dates and welcoming me for birthday parties and making sure there were healthy snacks and making a team happen for her kids and so many others, who loved to ski! She had a great smile... and I remember that she wasn't a pushover, that we couldn't get away with too much around her... and I love that, because, ...well her kids turned out pretty terrific. I just really liked what I knew of Mary and that is what makes me soo sad for your loss. You just keep telling those grand daughters that there is now MORE dancing and delight in heaven as their looks down and watches them grow! All the best.
