To the Michael Family - Thank you for letting me come say goodbye and thank your Mom for being a special part of my life.  We were blessed to be such close friends and having all the wonderful parents we had.  If our children and their friends can say the same about us when we get older, then we will have lived a good life.  We certainly had good role models.  Sending love and prayers your way.  Bernadette <3.

Dear Dear Joe,
I was saddened for you and your family at the passing of Margaret. I know that this is a great loss for you. My heart goes out to you and your family. You two were very devoted to each other. It has been a real pleasure getting to know you and Margaret. I wish I could have known her before she became ill. I will miss hearing your laughter through out Stella Maris. Please keep in touch.

To Tim Michael and Family: I would like to express my sincere condolences to you and your family for the lose of your Mother. Although I did not know your Mom personally I do know that you and your family must have loved her very much. I know that these coming days,months, and years will be hard for the family but I do know that the love that she had for you will make these times a little easier for you.

Sincerely, Mark Welsch and Family

Mom, you will be missed, as Dizzy Dean once said, "Always respect, and honor your mother, for you see, you only have one mother, and when she is gone, you'll never have another". Mom you were one of a kind, the best mother a kid could have.
Mom you were family, you put your family first and always worried about your children.
You always made a house a home, and Christmas, and birthdays special with your home made cakes and ice cream, things were always simple but they are great memories of you that will never be forgotten. You were a devoted Catholic and made sure your children were brought up and practiced the Catholic faith, and attended Catholic schools. 
You were taken from us too soon with Alzheimer, at least the older grandchildren had the chance to get to know you, and be around you, as for Luke, Gracie Lou, Maueve, Brendan, and Reagan they were robbed of a great grandmother. We can only look back in life at photos and remember the good times together. I am glad I was able to capture you on video, so we can look back and watch and hear your voice.
I told Margaret Mary that you told me in my younger years, "We may not have alot of money, but I will never let you go hungry", and you kept your word. I told Margaret Mary, "Do you remember the parable about Jesus feeding the crowd with 2 fish and 3 loaves of bread?" Well that was mom, she could feed a family of 7 with a pound of groundbeef, or a pound of bacon or scrapple, she always made sure we had 3 meals and prayers before eating.
Mom you brought your children up right, I will never forget you, and appreciate everything you did for me in life.
Sure, we will be sad with you gone, but I know you would not want us to grieve for you, because you are in a better place, and you finally get to see Maureen after 35 years. 
Mom, enjoy your eternal life, and we will meet again someday.

Love You
Your Favorite Son

Dear Margie and Debbie,
I never met your mom but I know that a mother's love and kindness often shines through her children. By knowing both of you and your sweet children I know what a wonderful person we have lost. May she rest in peace

To the Michael Family: Our sincere sympathies for the loss of such a gentle and loving spirit; Your Mom, Wife, Aunt, Sister. She always treated our family as part of hers. We will truly miss her and remember her laughter!

Joe and Family,
  MY thoughts and prayers are with you all during this most difficult time, but just know she is now in Heaven with the rest of her family and not suffering any longer.  The next year will be the hardest since it the first year without her, but just know she is watching over you and still will be with you in spirit.May we all be blessed for knowing her while she was with us. May she now rest in peace with God our Father and all the rest of the Quigley's that are there with her now.

May the memories held deep within your hearts help to soothe your spirits at this difficult time. I remember sharing some treats from Woodlea bakery and eating carry out food we had delivered to Stella Maris with Cousin Joe and Cousin Margaret while my mom was in Stella Maris. You all will be in my prayers. Wishing God's comfort for you and your family. May you be comforted by the many warm thoughts of those who care.
Joyce Quigley Woods and family

Joe~ My thoughts and Prayers are with you! It has been a blessing the last few years getting to know you at Stella Maris. My big regret is that I didn't get to know Margaret before her time with us. I do however, remember her smiling face when you brought her to the lobby and took her around the building. I know inside her she knew how you were always there for her. Stella Maris will miss Ms. Margaret's smiling face and we will miss You and all your contributions to our facility. May God Bless Ms. Margaret, You and your Family!

Condolences from the staff of Schimunek Funeral Homes

May the embodiment of a gentle soul, a loving mother and wife, rest in the peace of heaven after a life well lived!

May you all rejoice in the joy your Momma brought to everyone that met her. 

 When I was 7,8 and 9 years old Margaret and Joe often took me on dates with them, sometimes Clyde even came also.  They loved to take us to the Catholic church Carnivals, we had a wonderful time with many great memories.

I know Margaret is in Heaven rejoicing with Maureen, James, John , Bobby and her Momma and Daddy.  I also know my parents, Jack and Charlotte Quigley, were there to greet her also.  I know my Daddy had his leprechaun neon green leisure suit on with his green tam and etc....you certainly have an idea where I am going with this!

Joe, Margaret is whole again, and now she remembers that you were there every day at Stella Maris to spend the day with her.

To the wonderful children of Margaret and Joe, you had the most amazing Momma and still have a fantastic Daddy, cherish him.  Your Momma and Daddy are so very proud of all their children, and over the next year as all the "first" arrive you will share fond and funny memories, so enjoy.

To the rest of the Quigley clan, I hope y'all bring chapstick to the viewing because I remember "Quigley" wakes and funerals.

Finally to Margaret, give your wonderful brothers and parents a big kiss from me, because y'all have given me the most cherished memories from my childhood.

All my love,

Jeannette Quigley Doenges
