I am so sorry to hear this news! I adored this wonderful lady and she always reminded me of my own mother in so many ways since I first met you Jackie in grade 3 with your sparkle fingernail polish and Andy, you and Valerie over many years of memories at the Pub. She had qualities like compassion for others,always giggling and just enough sass to make you realize what a strong woman she was.She always offered up her hands and heart to help others and applied that love to so many young children about our town.
My thoughts are strongly with you all ❤️

Jackie, Jeffry, Andie and Family
Valerie was a dear friend of mine. We grew up together, spent some time in the early years playing and staying at each other house. She often said my house was her second home. We loved going to dances when we were young and having great “Jives” together at school dances and at the old Fire Hall in the early 60’s. As time passed we had our own families, and obligations, but that never kept us from thinking about each other. In later years we got together a few times with Brenda and Sharon, our best friends growing up. Each birthday we made an effort to call or send a card, which we always looked forward to. When Val worked at the Queens Day Care, she always commented on my granddaughter Katie and how she was growing and learning. Val always asked me how Katie was whenever we saw one another. She was wonderful with children. I am so glad that I got to visit Val while she was in Queens General. I will always love her and miss her. God Bless. Friend Susan
