Letty was the youngest of a large family growing up in Creeslough, County Donegal.
A devout Catholic who instilled her faith in her children. She worked for a time in England before immigrating to the US following her brother John. At an Irish dance hall she met the love of her life, Ed. Within 2 years she was married and soon after started a family being a stay at home mom raising 5 sons.
She enjoyed spending time at the shore during the summer. Boscov’s, casinos and family were her favorites, not necessarily in that order. She always had time for her grandchildren and then her great-grandchildren attending many of their school and sports activities. She will be missed by all the lives she has touched.
