November 13th

Today would have been Helen Manning Riley’s 99th birthday. Helen was born on this day in 1921 and passed on June 25, 1994. Married to William Leo Riley on September 6, 1952, the couple had three children, Patricia, William and Paul.

Here is a picture of Helen with her daughter Patricia:

It was on this day in 1962 that Judith Mulligan Moore passed away. Judy was the oldest daughter of Walter and Margaret (Riley) Mulligan. She died at the age of 24 years, leaving her husband David and two daughters; 17 months old Susan and 1 month old Kathryn.

May Helen and Judy, and all the souls of the faithful departed, Rest In Peace.
