    Our condolences to the entire family. Quirina was a part of your lives for so many years and I am sure each of you has a memory to treasure of time spent with her. She stepped into some big shoes to fill which likely wasn’t easy for her, but she was there for all of you when needed. She’s gone but not forgotten. Rest in peace Quirina….you’ve earned it.
