  • Judy I’m sorry to hear about mom, hopefully she is at peace and in a better place now.

  • being a part of the Pleasant Street gang was definitely in honor Mrs. Bradley and Mrs. Ohlson were the leaders of the gang and whenever any of us kids got accused of anything they would stand side-by-side to protect us having the Bradley’s as a direct next-door neighbor was like one big happy family the laughs and all of the love that we all shared for each other was amazing. It is so sad to see it go away, but I’m sure that Mrs. Bradley will find a new gang in heaven and will be just as involved as she was here to the whole Bradley gang , yeah mom was just like having a second mother I thank you so much for sharing your family with mine and will never forget it. Love you all Susan.

  • I am so very sorry to hear about the loss of your beautiful mother, Carol. She was an amazing woman who loved you all so much. I will never forget when she came to my mother’s wake, and she held me so tight and talked about how sweet my mother was to her when she was in the hospital. She tucked her telephone number into my hand and said please call me, I miss you. I did exactly as she asked and for years, she was my friend and my second mother, as she was to all the children who were blessed to know her. We shared many happy moments when I visited her in Weymouth and numerous long phone calls. I was busy taking care of my father and I remember all her wonderful happy words of wisdom and love when I so needed a loving “mom/friend” in my corner to keep me sane. My father passed away in February of this year, and I have been so busy these last few months, but I had her on my mind and always kept her my prayers. I am so very sorry for your loss. Carol was truly the best mom and friend to all who knew her. I will never forget her. I know she’s laughing with my mom and dad in Heaven. Thank you for sharing your mother with me. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Sincerely, Janice Malvesti
