Mary’s Story

Site created on April 6, 2020

On Thursday, April 2nd we took my mom to the hospital for what we believed was a stroke. They did some preliminary tests and admitted her. After the preliminary tests they told us they saw two shadows on her brain and wanted to do further testing. On Friday, April 3rd they gave us the diagnosis of stage 4 Lung Cancer which had metastasized to her brain.

Journal entry by Marykate Coakley

Thank you to everyone who has reached out to us with the passing of our beloved Bebe. We wish that everyone could be there on Sunday, but sadly we are limited in the number of people who can attend the service. We will be having a celebration of life at a later date, where we can all come together to celebrate the beautiful life Bebe lived. 
 
Please consider making a donation to Fun Time Academy in Naples, FL where Bebe volunteered her time when in Florida. She loved children and devoted her entire career to working with and supporting them. https://funtimeacademy.org/
 
It has brought us so much joy during this difficult time to hear funny stories about Bebe and all the different ways she has touched peoples lives. If you have a memory or story of Bebe that brings you joy, please share it with us on the obituary website by clicking “share a memory”.
