Dear John, I am deeply sorry for your loss. Sophie was my cousin & friend from a little girl & we all played together as children. I was saddened to hear this news from my nephew Jerry Olek. Sincerely, Josephine Polachnik

To John(we never met) and Sophie's only surving sister who I remember well. My family lived on Suffield Ave for years across the street from the Fronczaks. Sophie and I were good friends and I spent many hours at her house. Fortunately I had a long conversation with her at the Depew High School reunion last June. She seemed happy and healthy. I deeply regret her passing and pray for her family and friends.

John, Please accept my deepest sympathies. I cherish the friendship Sophie and I had in High School. I'll always remember all the good times we had.
