We are so very sorry to hear of the passing of Maureen. She was a very special lady, with a heart of gold. Maureen has earned her angel wings. Maureen attended our St. Dennis Faith share group, and her absence since moving to Texas has left a great void with her Madison friends. May you rest in heavenly peace, Maureen. Blessings, Mary Pronschinske and the Faith Share Group

My sister, Maureen, will be remembered as a devoted mother whose son, Robert, meant the world to her. She was immensely proud of his accomplishments, the life he built, and the family he cherished. Her greatest joy was spending time with her beloved grandchildren. Maureen was a hard-working, intelligent woman who built an outstanding career through dedication and perseverance. She will be deeply missed by her family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing her.

Maureen was such a kind and genuine person. She was always there to help and you would help me move during a time of great need. I loved her fashions and how she felt about her Great Danes who always seem to be escaping from her Monona home! Of course, she was so proud of and had so much love for Robert, Rachel and their growing family. I loved hearing about them as well as her many loving memories of her beloved Mark. I truly wish I could have known him and will miss Maureen dearly. Her smile, warmth and truly special heart stays with me. Since she moved to Texas, I missed and worried about her so much but always felt better knowing she was in the good and capable hands of Robert, Rachel and their children. Much love and thanks to them for taking care of Maureen, particularly in these last few years.
