I don't know where to start. This wonderful woman came into my life at a time I really needed her. I was still feeling the lose of my mother. She always cared in the most loving and warm way. She loved playing with all the kids teaching them crafts, playing games whatever she could do to make them laugh. Her spirit and her soul will be missed by me for the rest of my life. Thank you GOD for the best mother-in-law a woman could have.My prayers will continue always for all the Reisch Family.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort. She was a wonderful lady and I am glad I had the chance to meet her. I will now have that glass of wine she always wanted me to have.
